JavaScript Error when stating Dreamweaver cs6

When starting dreamweaver cs6 I get the following:

 

"JavaScript error(s) occured: Unable to open script file c:\program files(x86)\adode\adobe dreamweavercs6\configuration\floaters\AC_OETags.js (error 2)."

 

See attached photo.

 

There is no such file located in the floaters directory when I checked for it.  Continuing to Press enter 4 or 5 times cycles through the same error message then starts dreamweaver.  All site manager info was missing for several websites and I had to go to site manager and set all sites up again.  Question is: Has anyone seen this error before and what maybe causing it?

This was a fairly common occurrence in legacy Creative Suite versions of DW.  But I haven't seen much mention of it since Creative Cloud came out.   Sometimes hidden files become corrupted.  Below is the whole enchilada on JavaScript errors and what you can do about them.
