Question

after i open Dw cursor keeps loading&flickering every view seconds (W10)

Hi all

I am experiencing problems with the Windows 10 Host service WebClient after i start Dw (1193 Build)

As soon as i start working with Dw the cursor starts to indicate loading (busy wheel) and keeps flickering (wheel)

I reinstalled Dw (before the last W10 upgrade) but this behavior keeps coming back? So i don't want to reinstall Dw after every upgrade...

I have my projects on oneDrive but stored locally.

So, when i "kill" the WebClient service i got some peace. But i don't think this is the best and proper way to get rid of problem.

has someone out there made similar experiences and solved the problem.

I would appreciate any hint

Thanks

Chris

I've had similar issues with upgrading to 2019. I contacted Adobe Support but with limited success. Essentially, I downloaded 2017 CC

and it worked. When I tried to execute the 2019 version, I got the following screen. It's just before you can "activate" the app. I've checked my Adobe account and no matter what I've tried either Deactivating all (1 or 2) apps, nothing works. I think I've resigned myself to working with 2017.

What happened when you clicked on Allow Access in Windows Defender?

Hi Nancy,

Thank you for the follow-up question. Nothing changes. There is something wrong with the JavaScript that occurs just before you see the screen to accept/activate the software. I realized this as when I installed the 2017 APP, the software opens without issue at the point where it requests acceptance/activation of software. I checked my Adobe account and it shows that 2017 (not described) is active on my PC. Microsoft couldn’t help me either. There’s a bug within Dreamweaver that interferes with Defender (Windows 10) but no one has a clue.

From the build number, it looks like an old version of Dreamweaver. Can you provide us with the version number?

Also see Dreamweaver CC 2017 process "node" high CPU usage

If you have a purchased version of DW CC, I suggest getting in touch with the tech support team using this link Contact Customer Care 

Thanks,

Hi Preran

Thanks for your answer.

The Version is CC 19 - 11193 build ( i missed a 1...)

So i reinstalled Dw but had no success also with the node hack.

As soon i have Network traffic from the WebClient the cursor starts Flickering, its annoying

After the traffic from drops it stops fr a view secs and the it goes again.

Stops only when i close Dw or kill the  WebClient service...

node is not making any trouble, at least i don't see it on the heavy CPU/Memory consumption TopTen

Thank you for the detailed feedback. I don't really know what the underlying issue is. I suggest getting in touch with Customer Care using the link I shared previously. You can redirect them to this post so that you don't have to share information all over again.

Let me know if you need more help. After your issue has been addressed, I would recommend posting the solution here for the benefit of other users that may be facing a similar issue.

Thanks,

Preran
