Illustrator Crashes Constantly/Randomly
On Windows 11 and Mac Tahoe.
In the average 8 hour day, Illustrator crashes on me 8-12 times. I lose about 30 minutes to an hour of work everyday. No specific error, sometimes I get the error report screen, sometimes not. Sometimes it recovers, sometimes not. I even have Astute Saviour installed to help stay on top of saving, but since Illustrator won’t auto save while a group is isolated to edit it, then I can be editing within a group for 15 minutes without an autosave, and then I just lose it all and have to start over. Constantly throughout the day. Why not let it save while in a group, why does it kick me out of the group when I save? This feels like an easy fix and more of a secure way to make sure autosaves actually happen.
I have grown to absolutely despise Illustrator.
Photoshop almost never crashes on me. And Illustrator crashes on both Mac and PC platforms.
I’ve gone through all suggested fixes, and it still just crashes...constantly. (update GFX, disable GFX performance , purge settings, reinstall, CC cleanup tool etc etc)
I’ve been using Adobe products for over 24 years now, and Illustrator is the worse it’s ever been stability wise. Like, do you have the B team on Illustrator, what is going on?
Maybe instead of putting all the effort into generative AI garbage, maybe put it into a stable build?
It’s a testament to how a software monopoly breeds laziness and incompetence.
