Can't recolour a shape or object
I can't seem to recolour shapes or objects in the latest version of Illustrator. Normally, I would be able to insert a hex code, press enter and it'll be done.
However, now, I have to insert the hex code and click on one of the other boxes for the colour to load before pressing enter. In this case, sometimes the wrong colour appears and I'd have to adjust the RGB/CMYK/HSB numbers to get the right colour. This happened when I was trying to insert a thistle colour and ended up with beige.
Even worse, I sometimes enter the hex code and click away and it returns to the hex code it used to be. No matter how many times I try, that keeps happening. Copying and pasting a hex code won't work but there's a very small chance it works if I insert the hex code manually. I don't understand what's going on.

So far I can’t reproduce it on Windows. It can be a file- or a machine-specific issue, so please try to give exact steps to reproduce this behaviour, or/and record a short video or a GIF.
