Goodbye CC 2017, welcome back CC 2015

I've tried in the last days to work with the new CC 2017 but it's impossible.

The last bugs is with "find and replace" that move up every time I replace a text.

Why Adobe hate us so much?

I am trying to use Find and Replace and it is a disaster. Jsu tone of many examples is that I need to use it to change the nav section on all of the pages of my site. The find box is now limited to less than the amount that I pasted into it.  It stops in the middle of some code at the same place all of the time. So now in 2017 there is a limit to how much code I can put into the find box. That was never the case in any previous versions of Dreamweaver. Then when I try something small that is repeated on every page of the site It can't find the other items to put into the replace box. I have two major problems here. This is costing me time and a lot more than the $50+ a month as I do websites for a living. I have 145 sites. I can not function without find and replace. This is going to cost me a huge amount of time and I am losing my income. How long do they expect me to wait until they fix this? What software would you recommend to replace Dreamweaver?

You must consider that DW 2017 is only a preview (an alpha version) and I think that the new version won't arrive before of Adobe Max 2017.

DW 2015 is the current/default version recommended by Adobe (see the forum's posts of the DW staff).

While it behaves like an alpha or beta version with respect to the Find/Replace and other code editing quirks, it's a production release. Perhaps it should have been kept there for a while longer before being released as stable. And my guess is any actual Adobe employees that recommend avoiding 2017 will soon have a 'conversation' with their superiors. There are many things I like about the new versions, Photoshop in particular, but the problems with code editing, find / replace, copy / paste in Dreamweaver are driving me nuts. It's an adventure to say the least as soon as you press the CTRL key in the code editor.

Apologize for your frustration. I am not sure if this bug is specific to your computer, or whether it is something that others are facing as well.

It would help to report your issue using the wishlist form Feature Request/Bug Report Form

Since the 2017 release, performance in InD and AI has dropped significatly for me as well. Illustrator takes forever to do a simple move (like literally 10 seconds of pinwheel) and similar problems in InD. What's the deal? it's definitely not my computer as A) everything else is running fine and B) it's a 1-year old Mac pro.

For the love of god, bug fixes, please.
