Dreamweaver CC 2017 slow

Dreamweaver CC 2017: the slowest and full of bug version since 1998

I'm using DW since first Macromedia version; Today, new version Dreamweaver CC 2017, on my iMac 27 Retina i5 3,3 Ghz with AMD Radeon R9 2Gb and 24Gb Ram, don't open any files in live view (previous Dreamweaver CC 2015 it is slow, but allows you to work): now, only code view.

We are only beta tester: it is not fair to pay for this "old-coded" and never really upgraded software.

    Hi Preran,

    I found out what the problem in Dreamweaver: web pages with complex SVG graphics/images freeze completely Dreamweaver CC 2017 (not the same in CC2015 and 2014). I hope in an upgrade...

    Thank you

    I am a subscriber and I must agree this is the slowest and most prone to freezing edition of Dreamweaver I have ever worked with. I will send you my info.

    This is not a real upgrade, this is cosmetic, DW has always been one of these programs that never had a real update. I am sticking with 2015 until they fix this, painful to work with. Adobe must realize that there are some of us who earn a living using thses software. Atrocious!!!! just horrible to use this software

    I'm not having a bad experience with it. Apart from a few cosmetic issues, CC 2017 is performing very well on my Win10 with 64 GB Ram and 2 TB hard drive.   For me, it's running much the same as Brackets did. 

    I admit, the new UI takes some adjustment.   And sadly, it's not Hi-DPI Aware yet.  But they're working on that.

    What specific issues are you having with CC 2017?

    It is not immediately clear from your post whether you are using a Beta version of the software, or if you are subscribed to CC.

    If you are a CC member, send me your Adobe ID, location, and phone number over a private message. We will get in touch with you for investigation. To send a private message, click my picture and use the Message button.

    Thanks,
