Try this. Open any folder. Go to Tools -> Folder Options In the File Types tab, locate the CHM extension Click Advanced I have one Action listed for this type (open) Click Edit In "Application used to perform action", this is what I have "D:\WINXP\hh.exe" %1 If it's something different for you, you can add a new action or edit this one. Replace "D:\WINXP\" with the path to your windows folder.
