The old (win XP, win 7) winhlp32.exe version is still present in c:\windows.old\windows folder, but cannot be associated with HLP files (why?) and copying it to different location and running it gives the error 9009 (why?). Hmm, not quite sure what MICROSOFT policy exactly is, but thinking that people stop using legacy apps just because MICROSOFT wants to push the new Windows version that is not compatible is naive. Now I came across the fact that the older (hlp) files are handled by new winhlp32.exe that is merely a stub that opens a web site explaining that you are trying the impossible :-(. I upgraded just a couple of days ago, successfully solved problems with LAN printer and DVD drives not showing up. If an old help file (*.hlp) can not be opened on Windows XP/2000/ME/98/98SE, this kind of old help file (*.hlp) can not be opened on Windows 10, even if replacing "winhlp32.exe" (exsiting in Windows 10) with the "winhlp32.exe" of Windows XP. (7) Execute following command in the temporary folder (in which the “WWINHELP32.EX_” exists) īe careful "wwinhlp32.ex_" and "winhlp32.exe"īy this execution, you can get “winhlp32.exe” (which has been de-compressed from “WWINHELP32.EX_”).Īs a result, you can use this “winhlp32.exe.” (6) Open the “Command Prompt” window, and then move the prompt to the temporary folder (in which the “WWINHELP32.EX_” exists). (5) Copy this “WWINHELP32.EX_” into a temporary folder on your HDD. (4) You can find "WWINHELP32.EX_" in the "I386" folder of this "iso" file. Windows_XP_Professional_64-bit.iso), by using some tool (for looking the contents of an “iso” file). (3) Check the contents of this "iso" file (i.e. You can get the "Windows_XP_Professional_64-bit.iso."
Windows_XP_64Bit_Pro.zip), by using some un-zipping tool. (2) Then, de-compress the "zip" file (i.e. You can get one downloaded file (*) (by waiting roughly 4 minutes),
Press the "Download" button (light blue button), locating below the item "Windows XP 64 Bit ISO Free Download." (1) First, get a file for Windows XP (圆4) by,
If you have any idea, or if you can send it to me, I would be grateful! But I can't figure where, as I don't have a windows XP computer anymore. I understand clearly: I need to find the "winhlp32.exe" contained in Windows XP (圆4).
