Outline Stroke not working
I select an object, then navigate to Object > Path > Outline Stroke and nothing happens. GRRRR.

I have had this issue for a while. Trying to outline stroke using Effect/Path/Outline Stroke does NOT work.
However, Object/Path/Outline Stroke does work:-) -

Ahah! had the same issue. Make the path/shape a compound, expand that. Then Outline Stroke worked for me.

If you do this in order outline stroke should work...
Select the objects, click unite in the pathfinding tools > make compound shape then apply stroke > outline stroke.

Same thing happened to me today. I think it has something to do with compound path, but still looking for an answer
