Can't undo even once.

Having this issue. Can't undo. I'm running 21.2 and also crashing

undo option bug still perists please FIX THIS ASAP i cant even undo not once

Bug is not solved. I have Indesign 21.2 and working on a MacBook Pro running Tahoe 26.2. I can't even undo once. This is a serious problem!

I'm working on an M4 mac with Sequoia and on 21. 2 and experiencing a related issue where a state "Update Link" is added to the History panel every time I switch focus to another app or another file and click back to the original file. There are no links in my files and no changes are being added, it just "updates link" on re-focus. Once I undo some states and then switch to another file and then refocus, it clears History states. Once this is triggered, it happens for every open or new InDesign files until I quit and restart InDesign.

As of today February 20, 2026, Undo is unavailable after a few uses. I just updated to the latest version about a week ago.

Hi Ravi as of today: February 18th 2026 the undo / redo functionality is completely missing (greyed out) in the latest InDesign Release.

@Stefania You need to supply more information if you want help. What version have you installed? Add a screenshot of your version here. (Such as my screenshots below.)
Then we can take it from there.

Still not working in Italy

@David Cox and @Kath, the update was available for me on the 28th of January. It says 21.2 in Creative Cloud Desktop, and viewing the file details it's 21.2.30. A number of other users confirm the same thing, and my screen shots are from Creative Cloud Desktop and the file details respectively.

@Kath: If the version is right, I guess the date does not matter. Perhaps you already installed the same version from the prerelease site?

@David Cox: Press Check for updates and have another look. What does your update list look like in the Creative Cloud Desktop? Attach a screen shot here to get more help.

(I'm just a user like the two of you, trying to help.)

Are you serious?? THIS IS IN NO WAY FIXED. There is no update available in CCD, that is a straight up lie. Please Adobe, address this urgent problem. It is unacceptable that a flaw this basic was released as production code, but since you did, FIX THIS NOW. I can live with disappearing text. I can live with palettes that don't open. But one undo, maybe 2?? It is not 1997. I have serious work to do. My entire department is struggling with this.

The latest version 21.2.0.30 is not available. The one offered is 21.2 dated January 23...
How can I access this latest version (on W11)?

Why is the issue marked as FIXED? The pre-release version isn't the final version. Not everyone wants or can install test versions. When will you fix this and other issues? At my company, we had to switch to Affinity, which is fast and stable, but unfortunately, we can't migrate all our Indesign documents to it.

Great! Many thanks!

this appears to all be working with the update now for me too.

Thank you so much, this appears to all be working with the update now for me too. Fantastic news!

The update released today seems to have finally fixed the undo issue. Fingers crossed for the text disappearing part. Thank you!

it appears that the public release in the US has happened this morning. 21.2 has been released. this is the version that supposedly fixes the undo/disappearing text issues.

ctrl z has disappeared!

Just making a request for an update from Ravi Kiran or the admin team on what the expected timeline is for the release of the version with this bug fix. As a few others have already said, many organizations, ours included, will not widely deploy prerelease software to production teams. It would be great to be able to tell the affected staff that the solution is coming in days, weeks, next month or?

My thanks to the others who have been able to test the prerelease version and report back. That's helpful for the rest of us stuck on the release cycle!
