    Ben  P hit on the right link for you. I think the others have missed that you are on an M1 Mac.

    https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/apple-silicon-m1-chip.html

     

    For the others:

    Only Lightroom and Photoshop are fully compatabile with Mac M1.

    Anything through Rosetta 2 is emulation, despite how amazing Rosetta 2 applications may or may not function correctly.

     

    M1 mac is Mac ARM Based chipset technology

    Did you restart your computer?  Did you Restore Preferences?

    I would recommend trying the usual suspects of resolving DW issues from deleting the filecache to the user config folder, etc found in this KB article ( https://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/troubleshoot-javascript-errors-dreamweaver-cs6-cc.html ).  If that doesn't work, you can try re-installing DW, or also try using another user account to rule out corruption of a user account that could have come from migrating an old OS account pre-M1, to your new computer.
