Hello

today when I opened Illustrator 27.3 (in Mac) all my presets were gone. Not only the stock ones, but all the ones I made.

What can I do?

Hi @eduardosalvador,

 

I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with your image trace presets in Illustrator after updating to v27.3. I can imagine how frustrating it must be for you, as having access to your presets is crucial for your workflow.

 

To better understand the issue, could you please confirm if you are getting the image trace default presets in a new document with a new image that is not already image traced? Additionally, please let me know if the import preferences option was checked or unchecked while updating Illustrator.

 

I appreciate your cooperation and look forward to hearing from you soon.

 

Thanks,

Anshul Saini

No, they didnt appear.

Illustrator updated automatically. I already removed the auto update.

Unfortunately the only way to get Image Trace working is to go back to the previous version using the CC app.

what do you mean? Should I re-install the Illustrator again?

Yes, in the CC app you can choose All apps, go to the Illustrator item, and click the 3 dots on the right. Fom the menu choose Other versions and install version 27.2 (I recommend to first uninstall 27.3 to avoid opening the wrong version).
