Question
Offset Path processing causing freeze on document open
Platform: Windows 11.
Happened twice to me in two weeks already and has cause a fair amount of data loss.
When opening an existing AI file, the program gets stuck on processing the "Offset Path" filter.
- Hitting "Stop" does not dissmiss or interrupt this dialog. Stop button is hovered appear to process my click, but does nothing.
- I can't navigate to any other open documents at this point. All of the unsaved changes elsewhere are lost.
- I can't close Illustrator with X or Close from Windows while this dialog is open.
- The only way to get past this is with a hard close or End Task from the Winbdow Task manager.
