Why does Dreamweaver force an image sub-directory, and how can I stop that behaviour?

This is from a person (me) who has made lots of web pages, but doesn't use sub-directories, so you might decide I am unsophisticated.  So be it.  I do not use sub-directories, but every time I open one of my web pages, Dreamweaver decides that all of my images are supposed to be in sub-directories.  Then I have to go through all the images on the page and delete the sub-directories.  Luckily, I usually don't have a lot of images on my pages.  Unpleasantly, it takes time and I have to do it EVERY TIME I MODIFY ANY PAGE.  It doesn't remember my preference.
Is there any way to stop this behaviour?
So far, I have looked in every options and preferences screen that I can find.  I have also searched on "directories" and "images" and combinations.  I cannot find anything.
OBTW, I do not use CSS for these pages at all.  They were made before CSS and they are mainly content and links to files, so I am not planning on changing this unless there are strong arguments to the contrary.
All help is appreciated.
Cheers!

What version of DW are you using?  And please explain what you mean by this -
every time I open one of my web pages, Dreamweaver decides that all of my images are supposed to be in sub-directories.  Then I have to go through all the images on the page and delete the sub-directories.
Are you saying that merely opening a file causes DW to move your images?

    My apps on my iPod 4th generation keep closing out on me, why does it do that, and how can I stop it?

    The above comment is not helpful to me, and I'm also guessing many people, but who knows. I've seen the same recommendation in many, many threads on this same topic, but only once have I seen that the resolution solved the problem for anyone, unless those people didn't follow up. Anyway,I found the below comment which made sense and may be the source of the issue. Too many apps running in the background - turn them off or simply do a hard reset to kill them all at once.

    Apparently, ios closes apps it can't (or thinks it can't) run because of too few RAM available. Double-press the home button and close any still running apps in the background. There are apps that serve to clear up some of your RAM. You will need to do this every once in a while, though.
    Clearing disk space will also help - remove any files you don't need/use and try to keep a clean disc in overall.

  • Why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it?

    why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it?  The music isn't anything on my machine and the only way I can switch it off is to reboot.  Can anyone advise me please.  It's driving me nuts ... I don't even like the music it's playing!

    What apps are open and are you really still only on 10.5.1??????? At the very least please update your profile, also please remember to post more information. I suspect it's something going on with just your user account. You can verify that by creating another user account (call it TEST ACCOUNT) and log into that account and test. Once this has been verified then you will need to check which apps are running to determine what is causing your issue.

  • Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

    Question

    Details

    As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
    Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
    In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
    C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
    Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
    Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
    If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
    If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
    Any luck?

    Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />

  • I keep getting kicked off of my wifi on my macbook pro.  It is the wifi in my house.  I get kicked off like every few minutes or so.  Why is this and how can I stop it?

    I keep getting kicked off of my wifi on my macbook pro.  It is the wifi in my house.  I get kicked off like every few minutes or so.  Why is this and how can I stop it?

    I think the other devices are fine.  I'm not sure.  It usually only happens like a couple days out of the week.  I do know that the network I'm using when I click on the wifi symbol at the top of my screen doesn't have a padlock on it.  It IS MY network that is at my house, but maybe that has something to do with it.

  • When I set my screen saver to iLibrary it defaults to national geographic,why and how can I stop it

    when I set my screen saver to iLibrary it defaults to national geographic,why and how can I stop it

    Back up all data. Quit System Preferences if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return. A folder named "ByHost" should open. Look inside it for a file with a long name that begins "com.apple.screensaver". There may be several such files. Move them all to the Trash.
    Log out or restart the computer. Test. If the problem is resolved, empty the Trash and recreate your settings in the Screen Saver tab.

    Hi Ignacio,

    I just tried it with a smaller project and the loading wheel did not appear but the brush seemed to have lagged on the screen. It returned to normal after about 20 seconds.
    Yes, I have used all tools and this is the only tool that makes it happen.
    Thanks.
