I've seen other posts on this but do not see an answer for me yet. I had Dreamweaver CS3 on anothe Windows 10 laptop, just got a new laptop with Windows 10. I instsalled Dreamweaver CS3 from original disk, but serial number not working. 

 

I see no way to "deactivate" the dreamweaver on the original computer. There is no "deactivate" option under the "Help" menu. 

 

Any ideas ? Thanks

Hi @defaultoc1c8ppbgpqm,

I'm afraid CS3 from 2007 is officially dead.  The aged out activation servers failed and were taken offline many years ago.  Even with a valid serial number, there is no possible way to activate CS3 now, sorry.

Perhaps more importantly, CS3 is very outdated.  The web has changed a lot in 14 years.  You really do need modern software.  If not Dreamweaver CC 2021, then some other editor that understands current code standards -- HTML5, CSS3, etc...

Hope that helps.
