Hi Ryan,

There used to be some issue with the winhlp32.exe earlier in ThinApp, but that was fixed last year. Do you get this problem with the latest ThinApp version i.e. 4.5? I tried WordPerfect application, packages with ThinApp 4.5 and the help scenario works in it. May be this issue is specific to certain apps. I would recommend generating log files using the Log Monitor utility and look for the CreateProcess API call for winhlp32.exe in the file that is generated for the relevant process (there might be several files generated, one for each process in the application, by relevant I mean that process on whose window we clicked the Help menu item or pressed F1). This will help us get some idea as to whats going wrong.

Thanks.
