How can I fix the error that says that slicingAttributes.aip is missing on CC 2017?

[_Indeketsu]

Every time I try to open Illustrator it runs the diagnostic test, saying that slicingAttributes.aip is missing. I didn't deleted that file, or altered Illustrator files. I run Illustrator on Windows 10

Hi Maxi,

Thanks for the post. Will it be possible for you to drop an email to ShareWithAI@adobe.com about the issue you are facing ?

If possible please also share the forum link in that mail.

With Best Regards,

Thanks, but I fixed the problem changing the name of the plugin from "slicingAttributes.aip" to "SlicingAttributes.aip"

Dang, I was hoping your solution would work in 2024, but instead the error message just changes to reflect the latest version of the file name!

In other words, I originally got the error message "missing required plug-in: slicingattributes.aip", but when I found the file and changed the capitalization to match, it didn't change anything. Then I tried changing the capitalization to "SlicingAttributes.aip" and "slicingAttributes.aip" and this time the error messages said "missing required plug-in: SlicingAttributes.aip" and "missing required plug-in: slicingAttributes.aip," respectively.

So it seems to be seeing the file, but thinking it isn't there when it actually is.

Have you found a solution yet? I started having the same issue today (on MacOS).

Hello npollman,

I would suggest trying the download page below, that worked for me. I understand mine was windows related, but adobe does offer a MAC solution. Remove all redistributables, and download the ARM version for you mac. Install then do a restart, thats a start at least.

Hello @npollmann,

We understand that encountering technical issues can be frustrating. Would you mind trying to manually reset Illustrator's preferences and checking if it helps:

For macOS

• Close all Adobe applications.

• Go to the following locations

• ~/Library/Caches

• ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe

• ~/Library/Preferences

• Rename Adobe Illustrator, com.adobe.illustrator and Adobe Illustrator 28 Settings folders to Adobe Illustrator.old, com.adobe.illustrator.old and Adobe Illustrator 28 Settings.old

• Launch Illustrator from the Creative Cloud.

Note: Location starting with this "~" sign indicates the User Library, which is hidden. So, you need to copy & paste the exact path in spotlight search or from Finder Menu > Go > Go to Folder > Paste the location in the dialog box like this:

Disclaimer: Please note that renaming preferences folders will remove all the custom settings, and Illustrator will launch with default settings. You can also save a backup of the folders in case you want to. The location is mentioned above.

Also, try running Illustrator under a different administrator account (Windows / macOS) and share your observations.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Anubhav

Hello All, I have the same issue. I have already installed the distributables, mentioned above, from the Microsoft website. I have tried to change the name, and also deleted the file. None of that works. All the rest of the fixes are for the wrong add-in error. Can someone please reach out with a fix.

[Anubhav M]

Hello @KaliShark,

Sorry to hear about your experience. If installing/repairing Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable did not help, kindly try the following steps:

- Close all Adobe apps.

- Uninstall all currently installed Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable,
- Restart the computer
- Download and install the latest Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable (https://adobe.ly/48Lh2cx).
- Relaunch Illustrator

If the problem persists, kindly share more details, like the exact version of the OS/Illustrator and screenshots/screen recording of the problem (https://adobe.ly/4be5qjY), so we can investigate this further.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,

Anubhav

Hello,

I wanted to give you a heads up. I will do what was provided and get back to you with an update.
Thank you for the quick response.

[KaliShark]

Hello All,

An update, I was able to get it to work. I tried to do the X86, but didn't change the error. I then did the X64 install and did a restart and all is well. Thank you very much for the quick assist and support.
