That’s strange. What version of Dreamweaver are you using?

Anyone know what to do if the “show hidden files” link in the menu is disabled (greyed out)??

Hi guys,

Just to share my 2 cents, it seems the view item is not in the File menu in CS3 and CS4.

I finally found how to enable hidden files, it’s even more buried…in the registry :

Hope that helps someone.

Never believe the “it’s not possible!” When there’s a will there’s a way… Although I’m still tyring to figure out how to set Dreamweaver to automatically start on “Remote view” so no one has to remember to always be on remote view.

Thanks for the comment Jeff.

Thanks for this. You would not believe how many people tell you it’s just not possible.

I’m very glad you five have found this page so useful. Please let me know what keywords you tried searching for that didn’t bring this page up, so I can work on making it appear there.

Thanks for the notes.
