Hi Dusty,

Help system in XP has stopped functioning. When F1 is pressed or help is accessed in any programme nothing is shown.
When in MS Office you can type a help question but the display shows a blank help tab.

Has anyone got any ideas?
Click to expand...

Start/run and type in: helpctr -regserver or to totally reinstall help
and support, assuming you installed to C:
Make hidden folders visible first and then go to
C:\windows\inf\pchealth.inf right-click and choose install. You will
need the XP cd.
