Computer was acting funny so I bit the bullet and did a complete system format. The pain point is always reinstalling those SDKs... Worked on some croquis and a background test as usual, but I am unable to add those files to this document until Illustrator is finished reinstalling at the very least. I'll update this spot once that happens. By the way -- Windows 8/ 10 users -- buy the app "ProductKeys". If you format your machine nearly as often as I do, this thing keeps track of all your product keys and backs them up to your onedrive. It's a lifesaver every time!
