InDesign 2020: crashing, undo doesn't work, missing fonts, text wrap is broken, so many bugs
The Undo bug is back. I tried to undo some text (in a table) and it reverted the document back to the previous save and then crashed.
On re-opening, ID complains that it can't find my installed fonts that I used in the document. They show up in the document, it just complains that they are not there. These are fonts that I bought and installed, so I know they are available.
I have also been having problems with text wrap not working half the time. I set a box (I've tried both image and text boxes) to text wrap and nothing will happen. Text still flows under the box. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it suddenly starts working on things that wouldn't text wrap the day before, so there is no way to try to repeat the bug to figure out the trigger.
Also, the mechanism to convert a 2020 document back to 2019 so I can actually get things done with working software doesn't work, go fig. It crashed when I tried to use it.

Uninstalled and reinstalled ID2020. That seems to have fixed the missing text wrap options.

I can currently get text wrap to work by selecting the icon, but the Text Wrap options will not open. Neither the toolbar icon nor the Window menu item respond to open the options window. After I select it, the window does not appear and there is no check next to it in the Windows menu. I tried applying text wrap to various objects and none of them will work.
Other tool windows (such as Characters and Paragraph) will open.

Ok, this is getting downright ridiculous. I was saving every time I made a change to the document in case of another crash. I just did another Undo (after placing a photo) and it reverted all the way back to the file I opened this morning! To be clear, it did not Undo back to the previous change (as it should have) or even the previous save, but it ignored all the saves and went back to the document I first opened this morning! All my work gone!
Luckily, before I touched the document, I took a chance and just closed it and re-opened it. The changes HAD been saved, but that is not obvious unless you have the idea to try to just close and re-open the document. If you don't think of that, then you're back to re-entering all of your work!
