Dreamweaver 21.4: Cursor position at the beginning of the .php file after saving

hi,
after the Dreamweaver 21.4 update, when I save a file the cursor is positioned on the first line of the file and all the content is selected. It does not remain in the position where the cursor was when saving the file, this creates quite a few problems in large files containing functions.
Is there a way to work around this problem or to go back to uninstall the latest version 21.4 update?

Switch from Live to Design View: Ctrl + Shift + F11.

Save PHP files often during editing sessions with Ctrl / Cmd + S.

If Restoring Preferences doesn't help, you can install the previous version...

1. Open the CC Desktop App
2. Go to the Apps tab
3. Scroll down to DW and select the "More Actions" icon (3 dots)
4. Choose "Other Versions" from the dialogue menu
5. Click the Install link next to the older version
