Undo not possible? no reaction to Ctrl-z, Ctrl-z not working

Must be some issue in .obsidian folder.

So the way I went now, in case someone else is stumbling across this:

  • create a new vault
  • manually copy all your files over into that new vault from your existing one. But NOT THE .obsidian FOLDER
  • manually recreate the environment you are used to with your plugins, your hotkeys, your theme, and your layout
  • manually rename your new vault (and possibly keep your old one as backup)

Now undo with Ctrl-z is working in the recreated vault.

Quite tedious enveavor. Though, probably less time consuming than trying to figure out what’s going on.
