Cannot see desktop after turning off "Show the home screen when no documents are open" - Illustrator

Hi there,

Does anybody know why after turning off "Show the home screen when no documents are open" you can't see the desktop anymore? There is a grey screen instead that looks to be an empty document which appears every time you use Alt Tab to go back into Illustrator from other programs. The latest Photoshop and InDesign don't do this so wondering if there is a setting I'm not seeing. Hope you can help? 🙂

Thanks,

Dave

Did you try to turn off the Application frame?

    Press the Tab key, maybe you typed twice when using the shortcut Alt+Tab to swipe between applications.

    Hola Buenas noches, que pena si utilizo este foro para exponer mi problema. Les comento...Descarge hace unos dias unos programas del paquete de adobe creative cloud 2018, entre ellos estan Illustrator, Photoshop y otros dos mas . Pero tengo un problema con Illustrator, resulta y pasa que cada ves que abro Illustrator no me salen por completo las herramientas, no aparece el logo, cuando loy ctrl + no acerca y tampoco retrocede, y tampoco sale el icono del programa. He mirado varios videos, pero ninguno habla acerca de este problema. POR FAVOR LES PIDO ME AYUDEN CON EL PROBLEMA. Gracias.

    Mi consejo es que solo instales aplicaciones de Adobe desde la web de Adobe, utilizando Creative Cloud, donde encontrarás las versiones actuales 2020, y la anterior.

    No me atrevo a preguntarte sobre esa versión y de donde ha salido.

    Por supuesto el Foro intenta ayudar a quien utiliza programas originales, legítimos, pero no otras situaciones.
