Illustrator no longer updating when new fonts added, without restarting.

Not sure if this is a bug, or if it has been removed. But while loaded, Illustrator no longer seems to update the fonts list, if a new font is installed. Meaning a restart of Illustrator is necessary, if you want the newly installed fonts to show.

It used to do it, but now it needs a restart.

Thank you for raising this. I had reported this to the team. I'll keep you updated with the latest information.

Same. I hope they fix it - it isn't the end of the world but it definitely isn't convenient. Especially when I am working with multiple files and need them all opened again.

I'm confirming this.  I use to love how newly downloaded fonts were immediately available in any of my open Adobe sessions. Testing this just now in Illustrator and Premiere and the newly downloaded font(s) does NOT appear in my open sessions. They only appear after I close and reopen.  😞
