MS Html Help is not installed on this PC

I have been using a trading on XP very good software, but since installing this software on my Windows Vista Home Premium (Svc Pk 2), I get the dreaded "MS Html Help is not installed on this PC" whenever I am trying to view the 'Help' file from the software owner menu.

One of the messages on this forum (http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistaprograms/thread/781b8c60-41cf-482f-bcd9-d20455f9b190) said a solution "the solution is to change the call to be directly to the Windows API htmlHelp." If this is the case how can I do to run the software to do this.

Appreciate your help guys :-)

  • Microsoft enhanced Point and print compatibility driver printer driver is not installed on this computer

    We are running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit (using VMware View 6.1) virtual work stations and the connection of users to a printer Xerox 4 Type driver/file being hosted on a Windows R2 server in 2012. The driver on the server is listed as "Xerox WorkCentre 7970 V4 PCL6" and when the user of Windows 7 connects the driver appears as "Microsoft enhanced driver compatibility point and print. In the "Print Management" client Win7, it appears as the 6.3.9600.17415 version

    The Printer works fine during their Windows session, they disconnect you and when they connect in the print queue is still there but when you right click and go to "Printer properties", he throws the following error

    "The printer driver ' improved point and print compatibility Microsoft driver" is not installed on this computer. " Some printer properties will be unavailable, unless you install the printer driver. You want to install the driver now? »

    Deleting the queue and then add it again resolves the problem for Windows session, you're.

    Note: we use Persona management of VMware to save data from the user profile of the disconnections from the virtual offices are non-persistent. I've been able to reproduce this in Windows 7 using a virtual office, I can't reproduce it on my physical Windows 7 machine.

    We get around this by using Group Policy and a vbs script to delete the queue on logoff, then another script to add back on logon, but it's just a band-aid.

    In addition, a Type 3 driver works fine in all of disconnections but we need the Type 4 driver in this case.

  • I have 1 2010 Macbook and I could not install the new OS. I'm on 10.6.8. and get an error message saying that it will not install on this computer. Thank you

    I wonder if my Macbook must be sent to the trash since I can no longer get updates to the OS. I have 10.6.8. When I try it tells me that they will not be installed on this computer. It works fine but I do not receive security and other software updates any more. What can I do?

    The computer has a value for someone who does not have a new OS X and does not use

    the last iDevices; Thus the old app from iTunes and stuff would be a good deal, as it is.

    Without more information on the model number and build year, propose any later version

    OS X update (because there may be one or two; if nothing shows up on the Mac App Store)

    However, without more information, such as the about this Mac can show you the

  • Search in HTML Help does not work with the help of Web to CHM converter script

    Hello

    My problem is simple:

    In fact, we use a simple HTML help with a chm file.

    The WebHelp offers more possibilities and the new script in RobotHelp 10 prupose for generate a WebHelp in a chm file, so perfect!

    But when I use the Web Help for CHM converter script, I generate a good chm file, I open it and do a search. The page on that research are based, but when I want to open one, I always have a message "this program cannot display this webpage".

    For more information, the search function works well when I do a simple HTML.

    Thank you in advance for your reply,

    François

    Hello

    How this may or may not work may depend on where the CHM is when you open it. It is on your C drive? If this isn't the case, it must be.

    In addition, if you copied it, it is possible you have to right click and choose "Unlock" in the property sheet.

    When I go to iCloud.com I have the opportunity to "implement the iCloud on this device" or 'Open find my iPhone' or 'Open find my friends '. But this system IS set up. It is set up for a good year. And I checked since the last update - I'm still registered. I signed in and out - but do not yet have access to iCloud.com

    It's driving me crazy. Does anyone have a suggestion?

  • HTML Help Viewer is not installed.

    The HTML Help Viewer works fine under XP, but when I port software on Vista, I get the message "MS HTML HELP is not installed on this computer". It is a DELL laptop provided.

    Other research indicates that the problem with Vista is the result of the use of a shell inherited from the old WinHelp to display HTML Help.

    It seems that you can use shell inherited, you will need to make the direct call to HTMLHelp.

    For programmers in Delphi, although somewhat outdated (but still useful) is "Delphi programming for the HTML Help API," Robert Chandler, which is available on the internet.

    The obsolete part refers to hang the old shell inherited, which is unnecessary now. You must call the HTMLHelp function now directly (using the Windows unit) every time you need display help.
