Posted - 10/01/2019 : 09:11:34 Ok before everyone tells me it does not work on windows 10 I know however I also know many people using it and can not figure out my issue. I am running win 10 32 gig ram 1t hard drive, .5 ssd and a .25 ssd drives 8 gig video card so I have all the power needed but it sucks. The lag is horrible talking 1 - 2 minutes after doing just a simple code change. Any ideas? Oh I am running it in win 7 compatibility mode and has the 2 patches plus did a reload to see if that helps. Craig Matheny LazerMmodels.com

CS6 runs absolutely fine but when I do a code change it takes about 4 - 6 seconds to complete, which I can live with. But I do notice if the code is a largish chunk it can rumble on a little longer. I have heard that turning off Windows Application frame does improve lag issues Steve Manchester, UK Using ECT since 2004 Edited by - 1818charlie on 10/01/2019 11:30:32

I did most of recommended things found on adobe site and it has helped a slight bit but shes not running as good as before. One thing I remember was Preferences > invisible elements > Server-side includes was checked and I've always had that un-checked. Also the tip here helped http://aldebaranwebdesign.com/blog/dreamweaver-cs6-running-slow-when-opening-files/ Winners never quit, quitters never win CSS and Responsive Designs User Manual for Ecommerce Templates

Too many cached thumbnails can slow things down. Also, I do not know if DW has a temporary folder where previous changes are kept like EW does. If it does, it is good to delete that now and then.

I was incorrectly advised by by 'partner in crime'. To narrow down the issue, & prevent wasting hours of frustration, if you have another computer running W10, I would install DWCS6 on to that. Export the site from your current DW to a pen drive by going to the Site menu in DW go to Manage Sites then toward bottom left of the Manage Sites popup screen you will see 4 icons above the Import Site button. The far right of the four icons exports all the site files and settings https://v45.co.uk/dwcs6. Import to your 'new' W10 machine and see how it performs. Steve Manchester, UK Using ECT since 2004
