Question

Is there a Start up Preferences file?

I'm trying to keep from turning on Show Layers Only under the Layers Panel Options everytime I'm creating a document. Someone mentioned to me that years ago there was a separate Illustrator start up file that contained more prefernces. 

 

Can anyone help?

It seems to be a Document Profile setting. You would need to edit the document profiles at:

C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator 26 Settings\en_GB\x64\New Document Profiles

 

or create one that you will use for every new document and save it there.
