Hi All, ever since I updated my AI, PSD and INDesign the default font is set to Adobe Arabic, causing lag and other issues. I've reset prefs, tried finding and deleting Arabic fonts on my computer, I've changed the default language to English and it still comes up as the default font. See attached image.

Does anyone know how to I can fix this?

How are you encountering this, form a new file or new file from a template?

Check your cloud prefs. If they were in arabic when you installed, change to english and reinstall Illustrator.
