#EDIT HOST FILE ON MAC FOR ADOBE WINDOWS#
The default Windows Hosts file has no active entries. Remember to set the read-only attribute again once you are finished to prevent third party editing of the hosts file. If you keep the read-only setting it is not possible to edit or reset the hosts file. The file is write protected if read-only is checked. Look at the attributes section of the General tab. This is done by right-clicking the file and selecting properties from the opening context menu. You should check first if the Hosts file is write protected. The Hosts file itself can be edited with any plain text editor, Notepad for instance which ships with Windows. The settings can be easily reversed this way when needed. Locate "hide protected operating system files (recommended)" and "hidden files and folders" and make sure that the former is unchecked, and that the latter is set to "Show hidden files, folders and drives". If you use Windows 10, select File > Change Folder and Search options instead and switch to the View menu then.
