Huge problem on Dreamweaver CC 2021 on macOS:
Cannot declare anything as rootsite.
“The local root folder, project, does not exist. Please select a new local root folder by clicking in the Manage Sites button.”
Then I declare project as root folder in “Manage Sites”. When I open again, I get the same message.

File vault status: is not used.

    1. Does your local site folder reside on your primary hard drive, not a networked or cloud drive?

     

    2. Do you have administrative permissions to read/write files to that volume?  If not, refer to the Apple support link below.
