Operation cannot complete because of an unknown error. [CANT] - Crashes and will not open application
Illustrator 24.2 and 24.2.1
Windows 10 HomeI've been getting the following error since version 24.2 but was still able to open and do work.
The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error. [CANT]
Yesterday I chose to update to 2.2.1 thinking it might fix that error. Now I cannot open Illustrator at all. I am not an IT person, but I have already tried the following to fix it but to no avail:
-Restarting my machine multiple times.
-Uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator with options
-Uninstalling and reinstalling Illustrator with remove options
-Going back to an earlier version

new project presets not appearing
I am starting a course to learn Adobe Illustrator. However, when I click on "create new" the dialogue box that opens only populates with Adobe Stock templates. No matter if I click print, web, or mobile there are no presets or options for me to change the project settings. Kind of hard to begin the course if I can't create a project with the specific setting for my assignments.

A blank white popup window opens over a file when opening.
Closing the window gets it out of the way & I can continue. It only happens the first time I launch AI and then open a file.
I'm on a 2016 MacBook Pro running Catalina & Illustrator 24.0.
Screenshot attached.5 votesSpin dump created from Activity Monitor will help in our investigation. Please create a spin dump for Illustrator when this blank dialog is shown and send it to sharewithai@adobe.com with Illustrator version used.

"open file"
Illustrator won't open more than one file.
With version 23.0.1, Illustrator will permit to open only one single file. The first file can be opened by any method, any subsequent file can only be opened using "File/Open" command. Using Windows Explorer or Drag&Drop does not work! and will freeze Illustrator; ending the application is only possible using the Windows Task Manager.
I'm running Illustrator CC (23.0.1 64-bit) ond Windows 10 Enterprise (10.0.16299).THX for fixing this!

Illustrator File opens to Work/Learn Screen
I have Illustrator CC and after the most recent update, almost every time I open a file in Illustrator after turning on my computer, it opens the file but the Work/Learn screen is still up.
I can see my file's layers in the layers panel in the bottom right corner but the screen doesn't show it. I can click around and it's saying I'm selecting things but I can't get the Work/Learn screen off so I have to restart Illustrator over and over again until I can get it to work.

Allow "Welcome to Illustrator" presets to be customized to actual user presets
When the landing or launch page for Illustrator CC2021 opens, there is a box of presets under the line "Welcome to Illustrator.
This system will not allow a drop or upload of either an AI nor JPG screenshot...the default presets are Postcard, Letter, Common, iPhone X, HDTV 1080p and "More Presets."
In my case, I never use any one of those presets, so I have to click "Create New" or "More Presets," which are the same outcomes, then click my way through the various options to get to "Web Large."
It would be nice if (a) the user could enhance…

Illustrator 27.2 se me cierra inesperadamente minutos después de abrirlo (Windows 10)
¿Alguien sabe por qué se me cierra Illustrator 2023 (v 27.2) inesperadamente?

Intel HD Graphics 4600 unsupported video driver
We've updated to the latest available driver from Intel for this integrated graphics card on our laptop.
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/30196/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-40
However, Illustrator still warns of incompatibilities every time we launch it. We've set our discrete NVIDIA graphics card as the preferred GPU, and it's listed in the Edit > Preferences > Performance > GPU Details. However, Illustrator still appears to be trying to verify the Intel drivers. There's not an option to disable the onboard graphics chip in our BIOS (MSI laptop). We tried disabling the onboard graphics in Windows Device Manager, but that didn't appear to make any difference. We saw…
