SFTP Broken in Dreamweaver 2017

Well as per usual Adobe has broken a working feature.

Dreamweaver only connects to certain servers now via ftp.  SFTP/FTP over SSL is broken.

I can connect perfectly to the server(s) in question with putty and WinSCP(sftp) on Windows, but as soon as I try with Dreamweaver it displays an 'FTP error occured - cannot make connection to host.' Triple, and Quadruple checked the server name.

- Windows 7 Firewall is allowing the program through.

- Antivirus turned off.

I see other people are having this problem and also with Muse.  In fact one of these servers I cannot even connect via regular FTP now....

Any solutions yet?

    I downloaded pre-release 11099 and tried to connect via SFTP to ndsuext.nodak.edu

    Dreamweaver connected successfully! Thank you for fixing this. How soon will it be added to the regular release of Dreamweaver?


    Hi rayates55​,

    I am happy to announce that your wish has come true.

    Dreamweaver 18.2 is live now with the SFTP fix.

    Please go ahead and try it out.

    Thanks,

    As this is a user2user forum, it may be best to aim your gripe to where it matters as per

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

    Use Filezilla?

    That's not a solution. That's a workaround. OP asked for a solution.

    I better workaround would be to use an IDE other than Dreamweaver where all the advertised features you're paying for actually work.
