I'm sorry we can't help you.  DW8 came out in 2005.  It's never going to work as there is no way possible to activate the software.  Adobe took down the activation servers years ago.  Even if you manage to install it on Win10 which is rather doubtful, the most you'll get from it is a 30 day trial. When the trial period ends,  DW8 will stop working forever.

 

Get Adobe Brackets, a free code editor.

Or purchase a Creative Cloud subscription with the latest version of Dreamweaver CC 2020.

    Thinking of when Dreamweaver 8 was first released, there are two solutions to your problem

    • install Windows XP (or, if possible, try running Windows in XP compatability mode)
    • install Dreamweaver CC
    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!
