    System
    - MacBook Pro 14" (Apple M3 Pro)
    - macOS Tahoe 26.5.2
    - Adobe Illustrator 30.6
    - Creative Cloud up to date

    Issue

    Every time I launch Illustrator, macOS displays the privacy prompt:

    "Adobe Illustrator 2026.app would like to access data from other apps."

    If I click "Don't Allow", the same prompt appears again every time Illustrator starts.

    The prompt appears immediately after launching Illustrator, before opening any document.

    Expected behavior

    If I deny permission once, macOS should remember my choice and should not ask again on every launch.

    Troubleshooting already performed

    - Illustrator is fully up to date (30.6)
    - Creative Cloud is fully up to date
    - macOS is fully up to date
    - Creative Cloud file sync is disabled
    - I do not use Adobe Cloud Documents
    - Reset TCC permissions:
    tccutil reset All com.adobe.illustrator
    - Launched Illustrator while holding Shift (without plug-ins)
    - Issue still occurs on every launch

    This appears to be a bug in the way Illustrator requests the macOS privacy permission, because macOS does not remember the user's "Don't Allow" choice.
