Anyone else having problems with the Illustrator cursor?

Suddenly only the tiny hand appears and when I click it moves the entire work space, even if I click on different editing tools.

Is it possible that your spacebar is stuck? Are things working normally in other applications?

Actually the browser being open besides Illustrator can cause this. You can try if any of this helps: https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/illustrator-gets-stuck-on-hand-tool/m-p/2055293
