Replacing the old winhlp32.exe file?
I have several ancient but still useful programs whose Help file does
not work.(It opens the top level Microsoft Support page!) I understand from this post https://www.tenforums.com/general-su...dows-10-a.html that the fix requires replacing the existing winhlp32.exe file by a new one, which I've downloaded. But Win 10 requires permissions to be changed from 'TrustedInstaller' to achieve that. This article explains how: https://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-7/w...stedinstaller/ I'm trying to do so, but fail at the step shown he https://www.dropbox.com/s/bghtvllj8h...LP-1.jpg?raw=1 This is what mine displays: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4zilyt1qwk...LP-2.jpg?raw=1 How do others overcome this problem please? Or is the consensus to leave those permissions alone and instead use some second best method, such as converting the HLP file to CHM. Or even just using a PDF user guide if there is one.
