Dreamweaver 18 Crash Issues

Hi,

I'm running Dreamweaver 18 Build 10136 on Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.2.

I have been having crash problems repeatedly, for no particuar reason I can find. I updated both the OS and Dreamwever at roughly the same time, so I am not even sure what caused the issue.

When I search online I find lots of people complaining about the same thing, but this forum itself seems pretty quiet on the issue. I'm not even sure where to start troubleshooting the issue, but for more than a week Dreamweaver crashes at randon moments and very frequently.

Herre's where it seems to be crashing:

When renaming files

When changing the picture located on a website.

I keep sending the crash reports to both Apple and Adobe, but I'm not sure that actually accomplishes anything.

I am close to rolling back to a previous version, since it's getting really hard to accomplish even the simplest updates to a client's website without relaunching the program multiple times.

Any ideas?

Have you tried any of the standard troubleshooting steps as of yet?

Clearing the cache file.
Restoring preferences.
Cleaner tool reinstallation.

?

I haven't done a full reinstall, but I have done the other things on your list. I'll try a clean install later this afternoon when I have time to do it.

Could you share the crash log here? Sharing with Adobe would help too but that will take time.
