Issue

When you export your artwork as PNG files, Illustrator always exports the artwork in 72 ppi, regardless of the resolution you specify. This issue occurs only when you enable the Import Previous Settings And Preferences option in the Creative Cloud desktop app while updating from a previous version of Illustrator CC to the October 2017 release of Illustrator CC.
