Workspaces preview doesn't run latest version of code. Works fine when previewing in Brackets.

I have exactly the same responsive.css as Nick, but whenever I run my website in workspaces I get the same weird problems with the portfolio images as before I had the code. Every file is saved, I haven't skipped anything and the code is identical.

After downloading the workspace and running in Brackets preview mode, the website works fine. I think this is a problem with workspaces.

I have done the some of the next video and when I ran the workspace in the same way, none of my changes were present but all of them worked fine with Brackets preview mode again. Also, when closing and relaunching workspaces my work is saved and the same, updated version but preview still doesn't update. (using default port 80)

FYI: Brackets is a free code editor with a preview feature.

Can you try running workspaces on safe mode and see if it has the same issue? If you still have that problem and you think it is caused by workspaces you can send an email at help@teamtreehouse.com with a link (if applicable) and a screenshot to let them know of it.

Thanks for the reply, to be honest I prefer Brackets anyway and will use that for the moment but I will try to get it fixed.

How do you run workspaces in safe mode?

You go to your Workspaces, find the workspace you want to run, right click and select "Open link in incognito window".
