Can't choose a Background Image

Hey, I am busy with a school project and I need to put in a background image but ever since the new update of dreamweaver the tab you can click on after typing background-image: doesn't show which means I can't pick a background image. Does anyone know how to fix this or why it's not showing?

Thank you!

First validate your code to ensure you have no errors.  DW is fussy about code errors and some things don't work until you resolve them.  See screenshot.

If that doesn't help, try Deleting Corrupted Cache

Failing that,  Restore Preferences.

Unusual behavior in Dreamweaver? Try restoring preferences.

You have the latest patch -- CC 2017.1?

You're working in a defined local site folder?

Are you in Code View?

It works for me.  See screenshot.

I have the latest and the thing is, it works on my laptop just not on my desktop. and what is shown on your screenshot is not turning up on my screen. so I'm not sure what to do now but to work on my laptop which kinda sucks, but that's for your help!
