Selections are automatically deselected after a few seconds

Lately, Illustrator will deselect anything I select with either the selection or direct selection tool (doesn't matter which one) and it makes for a very frustrating experience. Anyone have an idea to fix?

I am running Dell (windows) latest AI version
Core i9 2.9 ghz
32GB RAM
Windows 10 Enterprise ("1903)
have a eGPU hooked up external 4k monitor with Radeon card.

    Same here.
    Haven't noticed it before, although I'm not using Illustrator very often. Noticed it today for the first time.

    Win 10 Pro (version 2004) build 19041.388
    Illustrator 25.1

    Selection deactivates after roughly 30 seconds
