Hi Alisha,

Sorry to hear about your experience. Would you mind sharing exact version of OS & Illustrator?

I'd recommend updating OS & GPU to the latest version.

Have you tried resetting preferences? If, not please try doing that and see if it helps.

**Please note that resetting preferences will remove all the custom settings and Illustrator will launch with default settings. You can also take a backup of the folders in case you want to. Location is mentioned in the article.

If it does not help, you may also try Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to remove the app completely and install again once done.

Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to your response.

Regards,

Ashutosh

Hi there,

Sorry about this trouble. I am hopeful that the issue was fixed. If not, we have recently released an update for Illustrator 2020 (v 24.3) which contains some stability fixes. If you are not already on v24.3, then we recommend you to update to latest version.

If that doesn't help, try steps shared in this help article and share your observations with us.

Regards,

Srishti
