Fixing Adobe Dreamweaver Freeze on Domain Machine

I was experiencing issues with Adobe Dreamweaver freezing when opening, specifically getting stuck at the "Initializing Extensions" step. To resolve this issue, I renamed the Configuration folder in the Adobe Dreamweaver directory to force a rebuild of the configuration files.

I was having a problem with one of the machines in my domain freezing when opening Adobe Dreamweaver. It seemed to freeze when it said “Initializing Extensions”.

To fix this I navigated to C:\Documents and Settings\[current user]\Application Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver [9.0]\.

I then located the “Configuration” folder and renamed it to something such as “Configuration2”.

This causes the folder to be re-built in a non-corrupt manner.
