How to access Dw online help?

2 Issues.

1. I'm working with latest 2018 Dreamweaver CC but I get a window telling me that I need to have internet access to get into this program support.

I have 150 Mbps running from Virgin Media so that isn't the problem.

2. I'm a beginner in Dw and I would like to find out how to delete all the failed websites I have started but which have become total wrecks.

    #2  DW does not store site folders in the program.  Your site folders reside somewhere on your hard drive.  Use your operating system's File Manager (Mac Finder or Windows File Explorer) to locate your site folders and delete them from your hard drive.

    if you wish to delete the site definition directly from within DW without having to go into the site management, nor deleting physically the folder... you can also

    windows - Ordinateur\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Common\18.0\Sites\

    mac - Macintosh HD:birnou:Library:Application Support:Adobe:Common:18.0:Sites:Site Prefs

    Thank you for your help.  I cannot locate the six folders I would like to delete. I followed your advice and opened up the search facility but found a load of folders but nothing to do with the folders or about Dreamweaver.  I have just sent a request for help to Windows 10 (presumably Microsoft?) via their online help link and I await their reply - but I'm not holding my breath.

    A site folder is merely a directory that you created on your hard drive.  If you know what it was named,  for example C:\MyTestSite, you should have no trouble finding it.   If you can't remember what you named it, look in your site definition settings under Site > Manage Sites.

    Or in your local Files Panel.
