Ever since I upgraded from XP Home to Pro I've been plagued with a variety of
problems with a number of applications.
One problem is the inability to access Help and Support either via Start or
internal to some other windows.
Help problems show up in two flavors: Start>Help and Support where there is
a brief hourglass and then nothing. The other is from inside other windows.
For example, a right click on a desktop application shortcut
icon>Profile>Compatibility. There is a "more info" link near the bottom of
the window. If that one's selected I get an error that this program does not
have an association.....fix in Control Panel>Folders.
This is only one of a series of problems I've had since the upgrade.
To see a working list of all the post-upgrade problems:

My sense is that there are two or three patterns. Hopefully someone will
have seen the patterns before.
