Hi, the new dreamweaver 2017 does not display my local file path when previewing in browser.
Instead it's showing ip address::49957/preview/app/index.html

Is it possible to change it back to the full local file path? Ex. file:///Clients/WEB-PROJECTS/538185/eNL1116/index.html

Sort of.

The new DW now uses a Live Preview. That live preview needs to do some funky stuff behind the scenes in order to function correctly, changes in the address are part of that.

Unfortunately, it's a round-about way to do it with no shortcuts, but you can still use the old Preview in Browser by right clicking the file in the Files window and choosing Open In Browser.
