You could try and reset the preferences. This will erase your settings.

If you do it via renaming the preferences folder, you can revert it if it doesn't help.

Hello @Mary5C5320211922,

 

Sorry to hear about this experience. I hope the suggestions shared by Monika helped resolve the problem. If not, kindly try running Illustrator under the root user account (macOS) or a different administrator account (Windows) and check if it helps.

 

Looking forward to your response.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav
