Objects locked
Objects become locked in place for no reason - no obejct is set to lock.
This happens randomly when working with objects / shapes / strokes.
The only way to get rid of the issue is to restart Illustrator.

Just caught it on a secondary machine for 26.2.1 on Windows 10.
The objects in a new or old files refused to be moved with a mouse. No problems with arrow keys or move dialog, but not with a drag-n-drop.
Tried to restart Ai, reset Preferences — doesn't help. I tried to open a test file on another machine — everything moves fine.
Finally, I restarted the computer, and the issue vanished.
