Crash while working on Illustrator 27.3.1 - Windows

[1gabx]

My Adobe Illustrator keeps crashing for no reason. I can even so something as silly as "click a dot" and it crashes. It gives no message, it just closes itself. I have the latest version (27.3.1). I can't work with this.

I got an Asus TUF Dash F15, plenty RAM, i7, 122 GB free space. My GeForce Drivers are ver. 531.18.

Gaming drivers or studio drivers?

What else did you already try? Resetting the preferences?

Can you try and launch into Safe Mode and see if it works then?

I tried both drivers, Gamer and Studio, the latest. I also have all other drivers updated (Windows, Wacom, etc.). Likewise, I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling. It just keeps closing itself randomly.

Now I'm trying NVIDIA Studio Drivers 528.49, and it keeps closing itself a few minutes after opening it. I don't even need to be doing anything at all.

the same thing happens to me, I have updated everything and I have not been able to work on anything, I have changed illustrator versions and it continues to close by itself IT'S SO FRUSTRATING IT MAKES YOU WANT TO UNSUBSCRIBE

Please contact Customer Care and let them take a look into it.

Hello friend, I don't know if you use a Wacom, but I "fixed" my issue by disabling it in Preferences > Devices.

Thanks a lot! it works perfectly :))

Hello @1gabx, @Jose5EDF,

We understand how frustrating it can be to experience crashes. If you're using a Wacom Tablet, we recommend trying an older version of the driver (6.3.46-2) to see if it resolves the issue. If not, please follow the steps in this help article (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/fix-crash-on-launch-issues.html) and let us know your observations. Also, kindly share the crash report using the steps in this article (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/crash-next-steps.html) and use the same email account as your community account for quick tracking. We appreciate your time and efforts in resolving this issue.

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,

Anubhav

Going to Preferences > Devices > Unchecking "Enable Wacom", 'fixed' the issue.

Unchecking the Devices box in preferences also worked for me. What I'm hyper annoyed about now is that I let a customer care person take control of my PC and then my workspaces got fried when they reinstalled. All my workspaces are saved in my app data folder but for some reason I can't load them or import them or anything.
