Hi
After updating the illustrator from version 24.3 to version 25, 25.01 or 25.1 the type tool does not work, but if I open a file with text boxes I can change the text.
Illustrator only save PDF format if saving them in AI format gives an error.

System: Windows 10

Thanks in advance

Did you reset the preferences when upating? This is usually necessary. https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/setting-preferences.html

As for the saving, can you try and disable "Save in background" in the preferences?

Hi there,

 

Sorry to hear about your experience. Please make sure you have Windows 10 updated to the latest version.

Is Type tool not working while editing a specific document? Are you trying to save on a network location or local?
