Solved Download Windows6.0-KB917607-x86.msu

[DrDOS]

Trying to use the old help system and whenever I try to get this download from here HLP Download. I follow the link, validate, and wind up on MS website MS Home.

Does anyone know where else I can get this? No. I don't already have it installed.

Running Vista HB SP2.

Thanks.

Try this one

Windows Help Program for Windows7 Download - Softpedia

I know it says Windows 7 but since it's the old .hlp help I don't think they changed anything.

Edit: there was a free help viewer I downloaded that could read both .hlp and .chm formats. But I can't remember the name of it. Something like KHelp or KHelpViewer or something.

 

[DrDOS]

Miles,

I tried and wrong version. 6.1 I guess. I will look for the files you suggested.

Thanks!

Apparently this viewer handles hlp and htmlhelp 1.0 and 2.0 formats:

Help Explorer Viewer - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com

It's "shareware" but has gone out of development. I saw a user on a site say it doesn't expire though.

Mies,

Thanks. This may prove useful.


Appreciate everyone's comments and help!:D

Hi,

the file as downloaded from the JP website in link Google Translate

 

[DrDOS]

Lottie,

That worked! You got skills. :D

Is there anything I should have been doing? Seems like this file should have been easier to get.

I hope I can pay this forward someday.

Thanks so much for all your efforts and everyone else's as well.

I like forums....

All the articles I read said you could just copy WinHlp32.exe from an XP install. Probably had to takeown to be able to copy over the dummy one in the Windows folder.

Anyway, it's frustrating for me because I know a couple of years back when Vista had that dummy WinHlp32.exe, I found a freeware online that read HLP, HtmlHelp both 1.0 and 2.0.

Maybe the author took it down once MS started providing the WinHlp32.exe for download. I searched everywhere. Seems to have gone to mist. It wasn't Help Explorer Viewer because it was total freeware. Anyway, yet another web mystery.

DrDOS,

You are more than welcome. I am glad you are sorted & please do "Pay it forward"!

I could not validate my system & get the file (Error 93?) on the links from UK or USA. Even though the system & Office validates OK. Ha ho thats MS for you.

Perhaps some one could enlighten me on that error?

I found the name of the enhanced html help reader. It's KeyHH. In case someone else is looking for it, you can download here:

KeyWorks Software

Note that Keyworks doesn't offer it for download anymore. This page is part of a site that archives web pages. But anyway, in case someone may have use for it.

Hi,

I have now managed to pass the validation check & get to these downloads. Even though I passed before I could not get to the file download links.

I have found out that the issue was caused MS office, I had two versions installed, Student & Enterprise.

I have now removed the student version & reinstalled all of the Enterprise version & all is well.

I hope this information will assist someone else?

 

[DrDOS]

Lottiemansion,

Interesting. You may be onto something there. I had a trial version of Office 2010 (my laptop bundle) and installed Enterprise 2007 myself. Validation seemed to go ok too.

Your download worked and I've since removed the trial version. I wish I knew now which I did first.

Thanks for sharing.

 

[Lottiemansion]

Hi,

Click on your first post, first link & see if it works for you now?

Once I removed the student version, that is all I did!

I was indeed able to download that file.

Thanks again!
