View files outside of a Dreamweaver site

Navigate your computer using the Site pop-up menu, much as you would if you were using Windows
Explorer(Windows) or the Finder (Macintosh).

Work with files in the Files panel

You can open or rename files; add, move, or delete files; or refresh the Files panel after you make changes.

For Dreamweaver sites, you can also determine which files (on either the local or remote site) have been updated since
the last time they were transferred.

Open a file

Dreamweaver opens the file in the Document window.
