Group selection + free transform no longer works on text boxes to resize area without changing text
When I have a textbox open in Illustrator, in the past I could use the group selection tool to select just the box surrounding the type and manipulate that without affecting the text but now the bounding box doesn't even appear when I have the box selected without the type.
Currently to manipulate the box without the type I would need to individually adjust each anchor point on the box, the free transform tool was previously very convenient for working around the fact that there's no actual feature to distinguish between manipulating the text box and the actual type but…

Recent Files panel within workspace is empty
Since the last update on PC, opening the Recent Files panel (Ctrl+O), while a document is open, opens the panel but does not show any of my recent files. It doesn't even show the "Create new" or "Open" options. I went back to the previous version and it works there, so that leads me to believe it has to do with the latest update.

Illustrator CC/Windows- When selecting multiple type boxes and lines it randomly deselects the group.
When trying to align un-grouped lines and text boxes, it will deselect before I am able to move anything. I've updated to the most current version available (21.0.2) and reset preferences and am still having the same issue.

Placing images file then locking layers
21.1.0 64bit
Bug Report
I can always replicate this. Here's how.
create a new document
go to file-place and select multiple image files
before clicking to place images, create new layer and lock all other layers
Click anywhere and it will place your image on a locked layer in the corner of the art board instead of on your new layer in the location of your click.

pen tool game
https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/illustrator/how-to/pen-tool-game.html
This game has been a valuable resource for teaching Illustrator. However, the game has been broken now, and Adobe do not seem to care or register the problem.
The resources you provide to teach and support products are an important part of the package. It does not look good to see such neglect of what was an excellent idea.
I would even like to see more of these interactive learning experiences, as it is more engaging and useful than most other types such as videos.
Obviously there is some maintenance of a web game, but it should be easy…

After I type text, I can't correct a word. When I click on it it will select a new text box above it. I can only delete the entire text.
After typing a word/paragraph, I can not delete any part of the word except I can select it and delete the entire word/text box. I just got illustrator a couple of months ago and I have always had a problem with it, but now it doesn't work at all. Help!

High Sierra drag/drop/copy/paste issues
Drag/drop/copy/paste lags, doesn't work in Illustrator 21.1.0. Everything (click/drag/copy/copy/paste) is so slow that it doesn't appear to work. Even something as simple as Help/About fails.
