Dreamweaver closes when file browser is open

Hey everyone. I’m having this really odd and annoying problem with Dreamweaver 8.

When I open up the file browser, whether it is to open a page or insert an image or anything, it will close the program with no warning. It mostly happens after a few clicks… for instance, I click to go up a folder, I select a different folder, and BAM it closes. And it’s not just one particular folder that causes it or anything… no matter where I browse to it still happens.

I’m running on a Vista machine and I’ve closed every other program/anti-virus, and it still happens. I’ve tried uninstalling it and re-installing it to no avail. this problem just started happening about a month ago and it’s driving me crazy!

Anyone have ANY idea what the heck is going on??

It sucks to be working on something, only for me to lose all my changes. I’ve learned to save before I open anything, but still, it’s such a pain. I can’t even insert an image unless I type the HTML… and I’m far too lazy for that.

Thanks in advance,

Matt
