Every OS upgrade after Vista seems to make a point of breaking that linkage.
Was broken by M$ when the OS changed from XP to Vista. WinHlp32 and its association with legacy software - which I and a lot of other people run based on internet posts. In some ways I regret never upgrading to VB6, but at the time and currently few differences.Īt this point in my life, coupled with difficulty of getting VB6, not considering it.

If you prefer, you can probably still get those files straight from Microsoft simply remove the */ part from the above URLs and it should take you to the official Microsoft download page (assuming it still exists).īTW, after you download and install one of those files, see this thread for a fix to an issue you might encounter when using the older Windows Help format.īobbles: In my case I'm talking about VB5 not VB6. Note: Microsoft still hosts those download pages as of this post.

Thankfully, the Wayback Machine managed to archive them all, so for future readers, here are the various WinHlp32.exes: Unfortunately, all links are broken, except the one for Windows 8 (which the above solution links to).

Keep in mind that this version is for Windows 8, but you should be able to use it with Windows 10 as well.The KB article Error opening Help in Windows-based programs: "Feature not included" or "Help not supported" lists several WinHlp32.exes for OSs starting from Vista up to Windows 8.1. Once you do that, you should be able to open. To do that, just follow this link to download winhlp32.exe. However, you can still download it if you want directly from the Microsoft’s website. Microsoft decided to remove winhlp32.exe from Windows Vista since it didn’t meet its security standards, and since Vista this file wasn’t a part of Windows. Solution 7 – Download winhlp32.exe from Microsoft There are a few sites with a prehacked download, but be careful to scan for malware before running them if you go that way. Instead you need to run an installer for this utility that has been hacked for Windows 10. Windows tries to protect system files and is likely to "heal" the damage if you try that. Making it work on Windows 10 is a bit more complicated than just copying over a file taken from another system. Good old Windows Update, a great tool for "polling users" while scanning for old stuff needing updates. With so many people hanging back stubbornly instead of moving to Windows 10 they didn't feel any incentive, the community was committing suicide.
Microsoft made the old Help viewer available up through Windows 8.1, but they have dug in their heels on Windows 10. So even with VB6 there are times when you still need the creaky old Help. There are still a few places in VB6 where the refurnishing was incomplete, particularly older OCXs carried over to help port old programs but in many cases still useful themselves. VB6 didn't use the old Help format anymore when it was integrated into Visual Studio.
