Eyedropper tool vanished from tools panel
Whenever I restart my computer and open Illustrator, the eyedropper tool disappears from my tools list. The measure tool is in its place. No option to hold down the measure tool to expand to the eyedropper tool. Also not showing up when you try to add the tool via the Edit Toolbar feature.

Derek, is it fixed for you?

Is this still a problem?
Ai quite recently added a feature where we were able to move tool icons on panels, and the first release of it allowed to do it without expanding the Customize section (three dots button in the bottom of the toolbox), and this used to lead to seemingly random relocations when we tried to click to pick a tool, but moved it instead. It is fixed now, but does it still happen for you? -

So after updating and opening Illustrator for the first time, the eyedropper tool is there, but after closing Illustrator and opening it back up, the tool is gone. I've rolled back Illustrator, re-updated it, reset the preferences and it still happens.
