Question
QUESTION: I have not tools other than main tools in Illustrator.  How do I load them?

ANSWER: Hi Angel,

By other tools, Im assuming you mean your panels. Go to window>workspace>and choose an appropriate workspace. Otherwise you can also add panels one by one in that window.

Thanks

Kevin

QUESTION: Sorry to clarify my question, If I click on rectangle tool I only have the rectangle tool no other selections are listed.  Do i need to reinstall to get them back.

Answer
Hi Angel,

You can try resetting Illustrator first by holding down shift+opt+cmd (mac) or shift+alt+ctrl (win) as soon as you double click to start up the app.

If that does not work, you may be missing something in you app folder and may have to reinstall. Sorry!
