    Any update? More than two weeks since the issue has been reported. It's making it impossible to work with smart objects.

    After installing adobe XD, all my ai files were automatically change to open with XD. Changing the file association through windows settings doesnt work, it refuses to recognise illustrator for ai files.

    I am running windows 10 pro. Installed illustrator first, and then XD. Seems to have happened post latest update.
