Illustrator artboard keeps moving around, very annoying!

I have a 2020 MAc book Pro and a Wacom Intuos Pro tablet. I´m working with Illustrator 2020. A few days ago I started experiencing a very annoying problem while working on AI, the artboard suddenly moves (as if I were using the panning tool) to one of the sides or across, it moves slowly and I can´t do anything until it stops moving by itself, it is now happening very often which makes me lose a lot of work time. I thought it may be something with the Tablet so I uninstalled averything and re installed, but it keeps happening. I just upgraded my OS to Big Sur and it didnt fix anything. Driving me crazy! It happens with any sized files, even whith very simple small ones.

I'm having same issue.  Did you ever find a solution?  It's super annoying.  Everything I search is for the locking elements but what you and I want is to keep the screen view from shift around outside of the artboard.  Right?
