Every single time Adobe updates, all my settings and workspaces are completely wiped out
Every single time Adobe updates, all my settings and workspaces are completely wiped out. Do you have any idea how much time this wastes?
It’s beyond frustrating — it’s infuriating. And to make things worse, you keep raising prices while sneakily auto-renewing subscriptions without proper notice. This isn’t just bad service — it’s predatory. At this point, your behavior is no different from a scam.1 vote -

Drag and Drop lag
Whenever dragging vector objects in a file, Illustrator lags, the waiting circle appears, and takes several seconds to place the object where I dropped it. Working becomes almost impossible when a simple task such as this takes this long. Illustrator 29.6.1, macOS Sequoia 15.6.

buscando lista de impresoras
Al intentar abrir cualquier archivo en Illustrator el programa en lugar de abrir el archivo se queda cargando y dice obteniendo lista de impresoras, carga y vuelve a iniciar la carga, como un bucle.
Al darle click en detener, el programa se bugea y solo me da la opción de cerrarlo.

Apply to All 'quick' action for Dimensions in Properties is slow
Properties has a dedicated quick action for dimension objects, Apply to All (which should be a command instead we can access via top menu, here’s a request — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657/suggestions/49010378)
Pressing this applies the current settings of the current dimension selected to all of these on canvas.
It’s S L O W. Even if I have just a dozen of these in the document, each time I change one, Ai goes numb for 15-20 seconds.

Illustrator reverts all the work done and doesn’t allow to expand
It’s just I'm doing work — and it reverts back to the start of my process and isn’t saving the work I work on as I go.
Also it doesn’t let me expand shapes and sizes.1 vote -

Illustrator sometimes stops responding when trying to "save as ..." a recovered file
Illustrator stops responding when trying to "save as ..." a recovered file, afterwards one of two things happens. Either the application freezes and can only be shut with task manager, or a text box appears saying the printer driver is not compatible and opens the print menu settings
- Open illustrator, and textbox appears: "Illustrator just recovered from a crash" etc.
- press "ok" to open the document
- Document seems to function normally
- "Save as" (via file or via keyboard shortcut), destination is local on the computer
- Regardless whether it is renamed or not, press "save"

I can't delete or merge swatches.
I have 4 separate issues, all stemming from the swatches panel:
1. I can't select a range of swatches and delete them. I have to select them individually and then delete them. Huge waste of time.
2. Sometimes when I delete a swatch, the thumbnail remains in the panel but changes to the red slash for "no color." I now have multiples of these in my swatches panel (see attachment).
3. Merge swatches simply doesn't work, even if they are both global swatches that I've generated.
4. Using the command "select all unused," and then trying to delete the batch,…1 vote -
Illustrator sometimes reports the font is not installed but then finds it on its own
Boa tarde, há uns dias abri um documento que dizia que o tipo de letra estava ausente e hoje ao abrir dizia que já tinha o tipo de letra utilizado naquele texto. Sendo que não instalei a fonte nem passei nenhuma ficheiro da mesma de um pc para o outro, podem dizer-me se isto é normal ou se há algum bug no vosso programa?

Wrong appearance of Drop Shadow effect with text object (non-English characters).
Wrong appearance of Drop Shadow effect with text object. It looks like effect use incorrect regional standards settings separate from the text itself causing the shadow looks like complete other characters .
Also, if you turn off BLUR in DROP SHADOW, the shadow becomes normal. And this does not happen with all fonts.
