Hello @mia24849885cjus,

We have an update from the product team! A backend fix has been applied. Please restart Illustrator to see if the issue is resolved.

If it persists, follow these steps:
1. Close all Adobe apps, including the Creative Cloud desktop app.
2. Navigate to the following folder location:
Mac: ~/Library/Caches/Adobe/CCX Welcome folder
Windows: %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CCX Welcome\

3. Locate the folder named CCX Welcome and rename it to CCX Welcome.old.
4. Relaunch the Creative Cloud desktop app, then reopen Illustrator.

Let us know if this resolves the issue!

Hi,

I had the same issue and when I tried this at first it worked but second time problem happened again. I looked at the file location given and saw the other file named "CCX Welcome" respawned. Now I have CCX Welcome and CCX Welcome.old.
