Hi XD team!

A few hours ago I have updated my windows 10 PC. After that, I am not able to import any SVG file in XD.

Also, Copy-pasting of vector objects from Adobe Illustrator to Adobe XD artboard is not working as well

Would you please check this issue?

Latest OS Build: 17763.1

Version: 1809

Thanks.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out and sharing the solution, I am sure it will help other community members. In addition to the steps shared above, I also found a helpful article, which shares more information on importing files from Adobe Illustrator: https://helpx.adobe.com/xd/how-to/import-assets-from-illustrator.html

I have the solution, just roll back your windows version,
Windows - Settings - Update & Security - Recovery - Go Back to a Previous Build

That is not a solution.

for me not to be stopped I downloaded on the site of xdguru the icons of the material in an .xd file. 
Then just copy from one file to another that gives to continue the work.

I ran into this problem too, it is a nightmare. I need to work, to carry out orders, and here such problems. It is not clear when they are going to fix this problem? It is desirable as quickly as possible!

Thanks for sharing the screenshot Lokmanh, as you are unable to import SVG, I would request you to try the steps mentioned here: - Files didn't import into Adobe XD  and share the results.

Please update this discussion in case you need further assistance.

Thanks,

Hi Atul Saini

I can't import any kind of SVG. For example, before the windows update, I have used icons from https://material.io/tools/icons/.  After the update, I can't import any SVG icons from there.

I have also many SVG icons on my computer and I have imported and used those icons in XD many times. After the windows 10 update SVG import is not working in XD.

Thanks.
