This has been disabled by a Microsoft patch due to security reasons regarding compiled html help on network shares some years ago. You can re-enable it according to Microsoft documentation with the following registry settings (which make your system more less secure): [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTMLHelp\1.x\ItssRestrictions] "MaxAllowedZone"=dword:00000001 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTMLHelp\1.x\HHRestrictions] "EnableFrameNavigationInSafeMode"=dword:00000001 You can also choose to use another help format bin R such as html help.
