Dreamweaver MX and Vista

Dear Aaron,

First of all, you should go to your antivirus settings, then choose
"Scan accessed files", click "Advanced". Click then "Exclude path from scan"
and choose folder where your Dreamweaver site is stored.
I think, this issue must be included in both antivirus definition and Adobe docs.

This happens when the program is shared by two applications and a sharing conflict arises. If you are using another antivirus go its settings.

Kindly press solved if this solution was helpful

very simple actually.

I made a tutorial that shows how to fix it here: http://www.funkytower.com/2008/09/22/dreamweaver-mx-and-vista-fix-insert-tables-best-fix/

I've written a few on this before, but this seems to be the best fix. You more than likely won't get an answer because there are still alot of people using XP and they don't have this issue.

The fix is basically this: going to the program root folder and finding and modifying the function for inserting a table (which is either or both c:\program files\macromedia\dreamweaver mx\configuration\objects\common and/or c:\users\your user name\appdata\macromedia\dreamweaver mx\configuration\objects\common) This file happens to be a simple html file, so it's easy to tweak.

The tutorial's URL I gave above will give you all the details.

Hope that helps!

Here's a solution I've seen in many forums, that worked for me.

• Find the Dreamweaver.com application file

(on my computer it's here C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver MX 2004)

• Right click on the app file, and choose "Properties"
• Click on the "Compability" tab
• Compatibility mode - change to Windows XP
• Privilege level - click on Run this program as an administrator
• Click "Apply"

Dreamweaver runs fine for me after doing this
