Question

New DW required login is totally unacceptable

With the latest update to DW 20.2 we're now required to log in every time we open the software.

This is totally unacceptable. What is the point of owning desktop software if you have to log in every time?

 

I know Adobe is trying to prevent piracy, but at what cost to valid users?

    Strange.  I'm not prompted to log-in each time.  Something else must be going on.  Have you updated to the latest Creative Cloud desktop app?  See other solutions below.

    The only time that I have experienced this is when I have have used Dreamweaver on more than 2 machines.

    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!
