DW CC v13.1 build 6443: modify new document template

Hello, all,

When you use CTRL-N or click FILE > NEW to create a new document, a document is opened and it contains the basic HTML start (doctype, head tags, body tags, etc.)

I'd like to customize this, a little bit.  What file do I need to edit?

V/r,

^ _ ^

    For Windows, it's at C: > Program Files > Adobe > Dreamweaver (version) > configuration > Document Types > NewDocuments > Default.html

    Not 100% on the location for Macs, but it's not in the "personal Configuration folder" it's in the program's "little c" configuration folder. Something along the lines of Macintosh HD > Applications > Adobe > Dreamweaver (version) > configuration > Document Types > NewDocuments > Default.html

    When I change it, I save it to the desktop, then copy it back to the location using my system admin rights.

    It's in a similar place on Macs. Applications --> Adobe Dreamweaver {version} --> configuration --> Document Types --> New Documents --> Default.html
