DW asks me after every time I change the code to save the changes

Hello,

I am using Dreamweaver CC Built 10155 on Windows 10 64bit and every time after I change something in the code of the document and hit F5 DW asks me to save the changes in that file. How can I change that?

    This most likely occurs when you are using PHP in live view even though you may be in Code view and is caused by the fact that the page has to be refreshed from the server after making a change.

    Make sure Design view is turned on as in

    That is expected behavior with PHP files in Live View.  As Ben said, turn off Live View.

    Hi,

    We are not able to reproduce the issue at our end.

    Could you please try clearing preferences and see if it resolves the issue.

    Unusual behavior in Dreamweaver? Try restoring preferences.

    Thanks
