Disabling "Show The Home Screen When No Documents Are Open" corrupts custom workspace
When "Show The Home Screen When No Documents Are Open" in General Preferences is disabled, the next time Illustrator is run, my custom workspace is corrupted, for lack of a better word. The toolbar and all panels are missing, and the Control Panel has become floating.

Egor - I sent the preference file to the email address you provided. I want to clarify my earlier post. I had written "Resetting the corrupted workspace does return it to normal, however that needs to be done each time the document is opened.” That is not correct; the workspace needs to be reset each time Illustrator is run.

This is odd :( Something breaks it each time then...
If possible, please locate tour Preferences (<OSDisk>/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator <version number> Settings/<locale> (e.g. en_US)/Adobe Illustrator Prefs), zip it, and either share it here in a comment, or send directly to the team — sharewithai@adobe.com (in this case mention the link to this report, so they can track it back here — http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/50444250) -

Egor - I appreciate your response. Resetting the corrupted workspace does return it to normal, however that needs to be done each time the document is opened.

I remember it happening for other reasons, but also when updating, also with the Home Screen disabled, but only when juggling some plugins...
Sometimes using Window > Workspace > Reset helps, sometimes it also requires relaunching Ai, sometimes I need to resave the workspace.
