Illustrator creates second unopenable file when overwriting file

New Here ,
Sep 22, 2022 Sep 22, 2022

We have some users who when overwriting .ai files they've changed illustrator also creates a second file that does not open and is also unable to be deleted. Environment seems specific to Mac users in a windows server environment.

Hello @Jerry5FCD,

 

Sorry to hear about this experience. When you save and open files across a network or from removable media, many variables impact performance leading to damaged files, access issues, or slow performance.

I would recommend saving your files to a location on the internal hard drive like the desktop and then copying the files manually to the network location.
