Can not access .CHM files across the network
Problem Description:
We have our Application client installed onto a network drive and various workstations at respective local machines. All the workstation uses the executables across the network. The help files .CHM files are also at network drive. But, workstations are not able to access the .CHM files across the network. Workaround tried: At workstation, we tried modifying the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTMLHelp\1.x \ItssRestrictions registry entry to enable a specific security zone. The above workaround resolved the issue. Limitation: All workstation don’t have admin rights to modify the Registry entries. Is there any way to enable accessing .CHM files across the network. -Manoj R |

Can not access .CHM files across the network
Hi,
Thanks for your help. But, moving the CHM files to the local drive is not feasible as workstations need to open each CHM file individually. Please explain in detail " How the desired restriction at login can be set globally??" Thanks in anticipation. "Richard G.

Can not access .CHM files across the network
If you have a domain, you can set the required change to run at logon as
part of a logon script; otherwise you'd need to set it to run before logon, probably using the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Run registry key to load the edit you need.
