Hi everyone,

The issue is back. It drives one slightly insane. Especially when one pays for a service that cannot be used.

Attaching a screen recording: It crashes every single time.

Even tried going offline completely. Still happens.

Deinstalling and re-installing Illustrator did not help (even the whole CC and deleting all remaining CC files did not help).

Currently on version 29.1

 

Please fix this fast!

Thank you

The video is quite blurry, it's not clear what you are doing. 

Can you please describe?

 

18 GB of RAM is not a lot.

Have you tried to reset preferences? Have you checked if there are any updates available for your computer?
