Hi

Whenever I use Dreamweaver, it randomly crashed on me, and there are some major glitches in the CSS Designer, sometimes the panel disappears, but if you continue typing, the data remains.

We have seen instances of Dreamweaver crashing on Mac OS where the anti-virus software CrowdStrike was installed. If you have this software running on your computer, update to the latest version of CrowdsStrike where this issue has been fixed and let us know of your observations.

Let us know if this is not the case with you, and if you still need assistance.

Thanks,

Preran

I do not have CrowdStike installed on my work computer. What else could be causing it to not launch or crash? I haven't been able to use Dreamweaver since Monday morning.

Preran-

After working with the IT department here it turns out it is indeed CrowdStrike. There is no way for me to detect or see that CrowdStrike is installed or connected to this computer as it was explained to me it's all over the network.

This means I have no control to turn it on or off or I don't know how.

Tell your IT dept there is a known problem in CrowdStrike and they need to get the latest update installed on the network ASAP.

Hi Carl,

Unfortunately, we cannot see what you are experiencing. It would help if you came with specifics, starting off with the OS and version of Dreamweaver. If possible, also give us a sequence of events that lead up to the problem.

Also have a look at Dreamweaver system requirements
