Dreamweaver CC 2017 stops working.

I have not been able to get Dreamweaver CC 2017 to work. This notification shows up when I start it (A problem caused the program to stop working correctly) It does open but the pop up appears before I can do anything. I have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling but it still happens any ideas? I have also tried loading 2015 version and it does work as long as I do not do an upgrade. I do not have Web Companion and can find no other programs that are causing a conflict.

Help please.

    Hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete.  Click on Task Manager.

    Under Processes tab find the offending process -- dasHost.exe.

    Right click on it and select End Task.

    EDIT:  Also read this link that Ben posted earlier.

    I found the dasHost and turned it off. Then when I went in to delete the dll I got a notice saying that it could not be deleted as it is open in windows explorer. So I did this I went and got Malwarebytes AdwCleaner and ran it 3 times to make sure all Lavasoft files were gone. Then upgraded Dreamweaver to 2017 CC. It works now. Thanks so much for the help. I did not know that the Lavasoft files were on my computer until I looked in the hidden files and they showed up.

    To download Malwarebytes | AdwCleaner  This is the easiest way to do it I think.

    What does your Windows Event Viewer say is the faulting module?

    LavaSoft is one known culprit.  Another cause is a missing or corrupted Graphics driver or DDL file.

    I do not have anything Lavasoft on my computer. The message I get is (A problem caused the program to stop working correctly).
