: Holding shift while making a new artboard doesn't create a square artboard Instead of making a square artboard when I hold shift, Illustrator CC will make a new artboard with the aspect ratio

@Bryan765

The Shift key option to make a new art board will indeed do that. That is the way it works, it relates to the values of the previous art board and keeps ratio.
If you need a square art board create one with radom size then use the keyboard short-cut shift+o
The following window will appear.
Insert values of the art board size you want.
