    Hi,

    Thank you for reporting the issue. We have been able to reproduce the issue, and it is currently under investigation.

    Analysis

    • We have been able to reproduce the issue on Windows, and it is currently under investigation.
    • The root cause is that the UNDO stack is getting purged and the issue is getting manifested in History Panel.
    • The issue is intermittently(depends on when InDesign chooses to purge the stack) getting reproduced on Windows machine only. The issue is not observed on Macintosh.
    • It has started to be reported by customer recently 14-Dec-2025 onwards. A Windows update has been pushed on 09 December 2025 for Win11 23H2, 24H2 and 25H2. Refer to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/december-9-2025-kb5071417-os-build-22631-6345-5b7b15d8-96a2-4c8f-a61d-b5e1bc9618f8

    I have worked on InDesign for 20+ years. The CTRL Z function has always been limitless up to the last time you hit save. This "BUG" is seriously a problem.

    Within the last year, another issue has popped up as well for both Windows and Mac's- a simple CTRL S (save) does not create a secure place to save all changes. At this time, I can hit save and still go backwards -kind of defeats the point of hitting save to save your changes so you can't undo them! It would be nice if this was fixed as well. SAVE should mean SAVE.-- not undo if you want. If I am editing a document, it is too easy to go backwards and undo the corrections. Again, kind of silly that save does not mean save.
