I’ve tried every solution on the illustrator forum, nothing’s working. Please fix it this is slowing me down so much!

 

I’ve tried resetting preferences

Changing Keyboards

deleting possible conflicting programs like Google Remote Desktop. 

 

Please fix this, it’s a core function.

    Please provide full details as to what version of Illustrator and what operating system you are using. Also, is this happening with all documents or just one in particular?

    Illustrator V 30.2.1

    Windows 11 Version 25H2 OS Build 26200.8037, I’ve updated my OS and still have the issue.

    It happens with all documents, always irregularly, it seems once an object won’t copy I have to select a bunch of others and try copying until something works, then it will work for that object, but might be coincedence.

    Hello ​@jgarbernaut 

     

    Sorry for the delayed response. Would you mind trying to run Illustrator after rebooting your computer in Safe Mode (Windows) and checking if the problem persists?

     

    Looking forward to hearing from you.
