I already have used Dreamweaver CS6 on my computer for years. Now this add for new version blocks me from opening it. Any help please email me [REMOVED BY MODERATOR].

@asgold47,

You resurrected an old topic from 4-years ago.

I have no idea what ad you’re referring to.

CS6 is discontinued & unsupported legacy ware. It has received NO updates or changes since it came out in 2012.

Have you made any changes to your computer or received a recent OS update?

Keep in mind that CS6 was built to run on Win XP to Win8. It was never intended for use on Win11 which didn’t exist yet.

Did you purchase CS6 from Adobe when it was still being sold? A link to the download should be in your account along with the serial number to activate it.

NOTE 1: The old installers won't work on Sierra, High Sierra or Mojave without a terminal workaround.

NOTE 2: Legacy Creative Suite won't work on macOS Catalina, Big Sur or Monterey. Nor will it be tested on Windows 11.

As @BenPleysier said, it's a decade-old product that's no longer supported. You will have better results with a modern code editor.

Dreamweacer CS6 has not been sold or supported by Adobe for a little over a decade. Anyone attempting to sell you a "new" copy is likely offering you a malware corrupted, illegal, cracked version of the program.

Be very, very careful moving forward.

If someone is willing to conduct a License Transfer through Adobe, then they likely have valid copy. I'm failry sure getting the license transferred will allow you to download the actual program from Adobe, rather than hoping you're not installing a keylogger and viruses.
