Hi,

Im going nuts trying to fix this.
Whenever I start a new project in illustrator my fill and stroke is automatically set to white and black.
I do not want any stroke color set on a new project, just white fill.

How do I set this as a standard?

Thanks!

You can change the default Graphic Style in the New Document Preset you are using to base your new documents on, like Print.ai, Art & Illustration.ai, Web.ai.
Open the profile you want to modify from:
Mac: (User)/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator version number/language folder/New Document Profiles
Win: C:\Users\....AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator version number Settings\language folder\x64\New Document Profiles
Create an object with no stroke, and alt-drag it to the default graphic style to overwrite it.
Save the file.
I prefer to have set my Preferences to Use legacy “File New” interface to make it easier to select the presets.
