AI 24.0.1 image embed
I'm using Illustrator 24.0.1 on Mac. When saving Illustrator file even with Include Linked Files box checked, linked files are automatically embedded.
Please fix as this is a big issue especially with replacing updated images. Instead of updating automatically, each file has to be replaced again.

When I enter and open an Ai file, it starts one more illustrator application.
I am working on updated version of Adobe illustrator cc 24.0.1 (64 bit) ruining on windows 10 .
If I have already opened my application and then hit enter on any AI or EPS file to open it, it launches another application of illustrator while the first one is also running . So, at a time two same applications run on my system.
I want to open that file in same application.

Update link
After I updated the 2020 version of the apps, illustrator started to fail. When I modify a photoshop file it takes several minutes to update on illustrator and my computer stops working. It takes like 5 minutes to update the link so i can keep working, before this version the update was automatic.

Align Objects and Distribute objects tools changed behavior
Windows 10, Illustrator CC 22.1
Align to right and align to top are the only alignment tools functioning correctly in all three alignment modes (artboard, key object, selection). None of the distribution tools are working in any mode.
In the 22.1 update, the Align Objects and Distribute objects tools changed behavior. Before, if I selected say, 5 objects and clicked the Align Horizontal Center tool, they would align on a mutual horizontal center. Now, they align to the center of the artboard, apparently, which is often completely offscreen when I’m zoomed in. This is a very confusing and almost totally…

Export for Screens: bad antialiasing and jagged edges on images within (especially rotated) when exported to JPG
Images from artboards containing embedded raster files output using Export for Screens are of decidedly lower quality than those output from Save for Web. Please see the attached image for a side-by-side comparison. Save for Web is on the left, Export for Screens on the right. Top images are actual size, bottom enlarged for emphasis. Notice the jaggies in the raster images.

Unreliable EPS export from CC 2020
If I export a multilayered Illustrator file as an EPS from CC 2020, layers are not saved with the correct ones activated when the EPS is opened in Illustrator once again.
When I complete the same task in CC 2019 the layers are saved correctly.
This means that CC 2020 is not usable in its current state as a reliable production tool for generate EPS files.

Save artboards as individual files - File name bug
When I try to save an .ai and check "Save each artboard as a seperate file"
Illy should create each file with my chosen file name, plus appended with the name of each artboard.
Except sometimes it fails to append the correct artboard name. I always rename my artboards, and sometimes it just adds the default dartboard name.I'm on:

Justification doesn't work right
In a block of justified text, when you fine tune the justification settings to spread the letters more evenly and avoid white gaps, the justification gets broken.
(In Indesign the same procedure works perfectly.)On my screenshot you see the default setting on the left, and on the right with the letter and glyph spacing set to slightly decreased minimum and slightly increased maximum values – and the justification is gone…

Workspaces not working, all panels hidden on start up.
Just update to CC23.0.1 and when I start up Illustrator all the panels are turned off and my workspace won't change or reset.
I can turn on the panels manually, but it resets when I close Illustrator. The reset, new workspace and manage workspaces options are greyed out. If I try to change the workspace nothing happens.

overprint preview not working properly
This is new to me as of today. This is a process I have done hundreds of times in the past with no issue. I have not received or updated anything over the past week other than any Adobe updates I receive via the Creative Cloud.
What I do is create a separate layer in a file to set up a kiss cut for cutting vinyl. I use a spot colour for this - same spot colour I have been using since day one.
I apply the spot colour to the text or object - in this case a box…
