JavaScript Alert

[Tinman1028]

Hi all-

Everytime I open illustrator I am now facing a new issue. I get a dialgot box with a JavaSCript Alrt. It states: Error: aborted. 

I can click OK but it will keep popping up forever. There is no way to get rid of it, even after a restart. 

Not sure what has caused this, anyone else?

I have the same problem, but I can use the program after close around 10-30 JavaScript Alert windows.

Please help.

This is happening to me also. Has there been a fix for this?

Hello @haprils,

I am sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind sharing more details, like the OS/Illustrator version and a screenshot of the error message, so I can better assist you?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

I am having the same error in Illustrator 2025. I just reinstalled and it is still happening.

Hello @treblechef73,

I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind confirming the exact version of the OS/Illustrator, so I can check this with the team? Also, try the following steps to reinstall Illustrator to check if they help:

• Close all Adobe applications
• Remove Illustrator using the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool (https://adobe.ly/40J7yNP)
• Reinstall Illustrator using the Creative Cloud Desktop application (https://adobe.ly/40J7zRT)
• Relaunch Illustrator

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Was a resolution ever found for this bug? I have this exact error showing up every single time I open Illustrator. 

I've resorted to tucking it into the corner of the screen to continue working.

Hi @Tinman1028 and @Tyler Licata

Apologies for the inconvenience. Please navigate to the following location, delete the Illustrator 2025 folder, and restart the app:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Startup Scripts CC

Let us know if this helps! 

Regards,
