    Which operating system?

    Did you define  a local site folder?

    Does your local site folder reside on the primary hard drive?

    What happens if you open DW and double-click on files from your local files panel?

    I am on Win 10 (latest release). I don't often set up sites. These edits are made locally to a collection of files and then uploaded manually via ftp.

    DW is designed to work with at least one defined local site folder to manage assets and links for you.  This is true even even if you don't use DW for FTP.

    Hi,

    Thanks for reporting. I am not able to reproduce the issue.

    Could you please try clearing Dreamweaver Preferences and see if it resolves the issue Unusual behavior in Dreamweaver? Try restoring preferences.

    Thanks

    Thank you for the suggestions. I have tried the preference reset and a reinstall already. I tried it again using the instructions link you've provided. Below is a link showing the crash.
