Hi @ilanel,

Sorry to hear about your troubles with Illustrator. Can you please try creating a new document with a smaller artboard size and see if you can see the DXF format in the export options? Let me know how it goes!

Restart illustrator, and make sure shift is not held down. Do you get a plugin loading error (DxfDwgFileFormat.aip) on Illustrator startup?

Right-click on the app and choose show package contents. This file should be there.

Restarted (shift was not held down) - no plugin loading error.

The DxfDwgFileFormat.aip is there
