The app was working fine last week, but now when I start Illustrator (V28.6) , the app starts but then gets stuck in 'not responding' mode.

I tried the following to no avail :

- basic uninstall/reinstall Illustrator

- installed an older version (went back to 28.0)

- used Cleaner Tool to uninstall Illustrator

I have no Beta Apps installed.

All the other apps work correctly.

I don't know what else to do.

Hi, thanks for your response.

But there's no crash report dialog, as the app just freeze.

Today, I tried uninstalling all Adobe apps with the Cleaner Tool, and reinstalled Illustrator after restarting the computer.

Illustrator is still not working.

Hello @6141860,

Sorry to hear that the suggestions did not help. Would you mind trying to run Illustrator under a different administrator account (Windows / macOS) and checking if it helps? If the problem persists, kindly share a screenshot of the screen where Illustrator gets stuck so we can check it with the team.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Anubhav
