Hi, this problem started happening to me today, I always work with linked files. And I use the "replace all" tool a lot, but today it simply disappeared, I would like to know if it is a setting that I changed.
My illustrator is in Portuguese, I tested it in other languages ​​and the problem persisted.
In the Archive "Imagem (2).png, It's a print from a friend of mine who has the same version of Illustrator, but it doesn't show the problem.

    Hi, today i reinstalled Ai in a older version, more specifically 28.4.1 version. In this version, i can replace all instances of the same link. I think it's a bug of this new version.
    The AI of my Friend today stop working, we use this on all projects, i hope this bug gets fixed.

      Hello @Bruno Bergami37392737x4th,

      Sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind trying to click on Replace and then checking the box for "Search for Missing Links in this folder" when selecting the missing file to check if it helps?


      Looking forward to hearing from you.

      Thanks,
      Anubhav

      Okay so here it is converted into a pdf, I don't know if you will be able to open it and check how to replace all the links, without having to go 1 by 1.
      But thank you in advance.


      I renamed the files so they matched the names of the missing links.

      When opening the file I click replace.

      Locate the missing link and when the checkbox Check for Missing Links in This Folder is checked, it finds the other link.

        Hi, I did this, but as I work with this method for files with different names, it finds an error as if it were not possible to find because the name is different, I just don't understand why I can't (aplly all), as I have several linked files , I would like to replace all incidences of this link at the same time, just as it appears in my friend's Ai dialog box.
