Unable to find the file NavGuide.htm

Report · Feb 21, 2010

I installed some extensions yesterday, and promptly uninstalled them again. Now I am getting the following message:

Unable to find the file NavGuide.htm in the Confirutration/Floaters directory. The floater will not be shown.

Any suggestions on what config file I need to clean up that removing the extension didn't clean up for me?

Well, Adobe support got back to me with a quick and easy solution to reset the configuration

settings:

1. Quit Dreamweaver.

2. Rename the Configuration folder in the "Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\(installation language)\" folder.

3. Open regedit and delete the whole "HKEY__CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS 4" key.

4. Restart Dreamweaver and it will be like a new installation.

This would obviously loose any other configuration, but would also work to fix any other extension clean up issues. The nice thing was that the extension manager still showed my old extension as installed, just not active so I didn't have to redownload them.
