Please tell us your system and hardware specifications.

Did you already reboot the system and reset the Illustrator preferences (this will delete all your settings.)?

Hello @Barbara_Vigen5044,

I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I hope Monika's suggestions helped resolve the problem. If not, kindly try the following steps and check if they help:

 

 

Also, try reinstalling the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable and share your observations:

- Close all Adobe apps

- Uninstall all currently installed Microsoft Visual C Redistributable packages

- Install the latest Microsoft Visual C Redistributable package from here: (https://adobe.ly/40T4pLm)

- Relaunch Illustrator

 

Looking forward to hearing from you.
