Keep the help and support window always on top
It's amazing to me the problem is often to find information to help on a simple topics in Microsoft Help and Support. For example, as new Vista, I spent over an hour looking for the Protocol parameters to keep my window help and Support, always on top while I'm trying to follow his instructions on a topic. All the variations of 'always help and support window always on top' I used, in the help on the computer, offline were in vain.
So, can someone answer for me I do this?

Registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/App Paths is missing HELPCTR. EXE. Want to know how to reinstall HELPCTR. EXE.
First see if it works:
The Center help and Support sometimes get broken with overzealous cleaning and there are a lot of things to 'try' who sometimes work and sometimes they are not. Sometimes people drop everything simply and never reuse Help and Support Center, but it can still be repaired.
Do you now or nave already used third-party applications on your system where the product description includes descriptive as sentences:
cleaner, mechanic, detective, doctor, heal, optimize, clean up, tune up, speed up, set towards the top, compact, compress, faster, power, boost, boost, gum, muncher. guaranteed or all that has an icon that looks like a key, the key or the screwdriver?
We will restore some things in the registry who sometimes kill himself by malicious software or, sometimes, these cleaning programs.
Before making any changes to your registry (although I hope that this update), make a copy of your registry with this free and popular tool:
http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/ERUNT.html
Then go to this page WWW of Riou (thanks, Ramesh).
http://WindowsXP.MVPs.org/startmenuhelp.htm
When you click the file startmenuhelp.reg on this page with your browser, you will see a bunch of text that
is the registry information that you want to apply to your system. It seems daunting, but it's not so bad.Press Ctrl + A to select all the text, then press Ctrl-C to copy the text to the Windows Clipboard.
Click Start, run, and then in the box, type:
notebook
Click OK to open a new Notepad file.
Press Ctrl + V to paste the information that you copied into the Windows Clipboard in the Notepad file. Save the new notebook
file on your desktop and the name of the new file something he can hold, as:startmenuhelp.reg
Quit Notepad and double click the file startmenuhelp.reg on your desktop and answer Yes to
the query about adding information to your registry.Test your help and your support now, then restart and test again to make sure that the changes 'stick' with a reboot.
You can delete the file startmenuhelp.reg to your desktop.
If that does not do it, we just reinstalled the whole shebang (help) and Support.
