Hello @johns63782626,

We understand that encountering technical issues can be frustrating. Would you mind sharing some more details, like the exact version of the OS/Illustrator, details about your workflow, and a screen recording of the problem (https://adobe.ly/3wjAQFm), so we can investigate this further?


Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav

Hi Anubhav, I'm running 28.2. Seems to be intermittent. working occasionally... ACTUALLY, I see what it is... this key command is now 'paste in front' rather than 'paste in place', lol, my bad... My desktop purposely runs an older version (to avoid these annoying changes) so it's just that my laptop has all the new csommands on it... Ignore me, thanks Anubhav.

Hi there,

 

Sorry about the trouble you are facing. I agree with @Doug A Roberts this issue is not replicating on Windows 10 and macOS Big Sur v11.5.2 in Illustrator v25.4.1 and v24.3.1. I would like to know if the steps suggested above by @John Mensinger worked for you? If not, I would request you to share a few more details along with the ones asked by Doug:

  • Does this happen in all the documents?
  • Are there any recent changes made to your system? For example, any antivirus, system updates, or web extensions installed recently.

 

Also, you may try running the app in Safe Mode (For Windows: https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/12376/windows-10-start-your-pc-in-safe-mode For Mac: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/x-productkb/global/start-safe-boot-mode-mac.html)

and see if it is working there.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Anshul Saini

And, have you tried a preferences reset?

I see no problems with it on Windows 10, Illustrator 25.4.1.

What OS and AI version are you using?

When did it last work properly?
