Hey dinamic! Thanks for the bug!

Did this happen suddenly, or you never see shadows at all?

What GPU and driver are you using?

Could you provide a pastebin of the unity8.log file, ideally just after unity8 starts up so we get the initial output as unity8 starts.

Thanks for that. Can confirm it is nothing gpu/graphics related, it is a bug in our UITK. Fix on the way...
