The new preview mode is terrible.  PLEASE switch back. Is there a way to switch back?  Do not like the new "Files Icon".  Also coding is buggy in general.

    Do not like the new "Files Icon".

    Probably because you're not accustomed to them yet.  I don't really think about the icons anymore.  They are what they are & not terribly important to my workflow.

    Also coding is buggy in general.

    I don't know what that means.  That's not my experience.  Can you cite some examples?

    Presently using CC 2017.1  with HTML, LESS, CSS, JS/jQuery, PHP & XML without any problems.

    If you're seeing code errors, check your Output panel to see what's described.  Code Linting can be a mixed bag of tricks, however.  Sometimes, I disable it in the Preferences panel.

    Specifically, I find Dreamweaver CC code mode buggy, when trying to select parts of the code to copy or cut to paste elsewhere. I mainly use Dreamweaver at work to code HTML and CSS to be used in a CMS.
