How to disable background file activity window in Dreamweaver
Solution 1

You just have to assign your FTP to a local drive letter ( E,F,X,Y etc.). There are some programs on the internet that can do it. I used NetDrive .
1. Download NetDrive
2. Map your server to a local drive
This will not disable background file activity window fully. You will just get rid off the annoying waiting after CTRL+S .
Solution 2
I found this in one forum:
1. Go to Edit ->Preferences -> Site
2. Find File transfer options
3. Change value of Select default action after x seconds to 0 . It was 30 before.

This should make your saving much faster.
