• How to get windows help & support on my PC

  Is no longer, I can get windows help & support on my PC.  I know not what happened, one day it's simply not there.  Can you help me get it back?

  Hi Celine,.

  This problem may occur if you try to use help in a program that uses a component to help older, WinHlp32.exe to display Help content. Because Windows Vista and later versions of Windows include no WinHlp32.exe, you must install this component to open the .hlp files that were created in the older help content.

  I suggest you to refer to the help article and check if it helps.

  I can't open the help that was created in Windows Help format (WinHlp32.exe)

• Select icon workstation: so, 'aid', so: "Help and Support Center" - &#62; does not work.

  When I select "Help and Support Center" with Microsoft, I get the error message: "Windows cannot find helpctr.exe.

  Can I reinstall anything from Application or system recovery disks - or download the Microsoft HELP?  -
  Or can only be re-established by dong RESTORATION?   Thanks for you help... ~!

  Do you mean you see a message like this:

  Windows cannot find 'helpctr.exe.  Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again.  To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click search.

  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:

  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:

  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 file in Notepad on your desktop and name the new file something he can hold, as:

  startmenuhelp.reg

  Quit Notepad and double click the file startmenuhelp.reg on your desktop and respond in the affirmative to the question 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 so, you can reinstall the whole (not reinstall XP - just the help and Support Center)

  Hi Anna1298,

  ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1:

  Step 1: Start in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

   

  Step 2: If the problem does not occur in safe mode, you can put your system to boot (in normal mode) to solve the problem.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

   

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to configure the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 provided in the above article.

  Method 2: Try the SFC (System File Checker) scan on the computer.

   

  How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

   

  Method 3: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

   

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

  Let us know if that helps.
