Update Links setting absolute path

In the root of my project I have a starter page that I copy and then move to the required folder to start work on the new page.

Dreamweaver asks if I want to Update the links and I select Update. The page has an image and the link to that image is correctly updated with the new relative path. The image has a link and Dreamweaver is writing that as an absolute path to the local drive.

I cannot find a setting so that the path is rewritten as a relative path. Is there one please?

I have just created some more copies of the starter page. On moving those, the link is being created correctly.

It seems the elves were at play. Thank you for responding.

Have you setup a site in Dreamweaver?

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

Yes I have and the target topic is the index page in that site.
