Links Panel / Relink feature freezes and stops responding during batch production work
When working on repetitive batch production tasks (such as updating multiple Amazon product listing variations where images are continuously relinked and embedded), the Links panel / Relink feature frequently breaks or stops responding entirely. Clicking the "Relink" button or using the context menu does nothing, effectively freezing that specific panel's functionality.
Currently, the only workaround is to completely shut down Adobe Illustrator and reload multiple project files, which heavily disrupts high-volume production workflows and wastes significant work time.

So the rest of Ai just keeps working, but the panel gets numb, but rendered?
Please tell more. Local or cloud file? Images to be relinked are housed locally or via network?
Can you reproduce it in a blank new document? Does it happen every time you try? Anything else The team would have to try to reproduce it, so every details matters.
