29095 2001-12-30 00:18:00 I use Windows 98 SE. Whatever I've done, I can no longer get the HELP files. I'm told:
'cannot open the file %systemroot%\help\windows.chm

Please help me to get my HELP files back.

Start/Programmes/Accessories/System Tools/System Information. Then select Tools from the menu bar and select System File Checker. You will need your Windows 98 O/S disc available.

Good luck!

29097 2002-01-15 00:54:00 Thank you Brian, you did put me on the right track with your suggestion. My Windows.chm file was missing. Although it was on my harddrive, it was, for some unknown reason shifted to a wrong folder. It took some time to figure all this out but things are back to 'normal' now. Thanks agin. Much appreciated.
