After updating - Can no longer move objects with keyboard arrows!

Hi,

In illustrator, after updating to the newest version released now in October 2017, I can no longer move objects by simply pressing the arrows on my keyboard, and I can't no longer go out of isolation mode by hitting escape.


This is so annoying, if you are a illustrator user you know how often you move objects and curves by using the arrows.

Is it just me having this problem or is this a new for the Illustrator CC update?

Best,
Cec

Have you already restarted the computer?

The next thing to try would be rebuilding the preferences. There is a method which can be made undone (in case it doesn't help). You need to rename the folder. Described in here:

That's just you.

Can you check the Preferences option for keyboard increment?
