    windows help


    Have no idea where to put this entry.
    Running Windows 7 pro 64-bit.
    Went into the registry "hkey_local_machine\software\Microsoft\assistance\client]1.0\namespaces\
    oem". enus was not there so I could not go to titles to delete Bcrm_bluetooth_help.
    I was told that this causes the help file problem.
    So I went to Microsoft and downloaded this file - windows6.1- kb917607-x64.msu.
    I ran it and it did not solve the attached message.
    Thanks for any help

    From the research I have been doing, I have come to the conclusion that
    Windows Help files are dead in windows 7.

    While the standard Help files are somewhat basic, I still find them useful at times. Not sure I'm understanding the problem here. Is it you can't get internet? Or is it you're wanting to delete a buetooth program/driver? As far as the net thing goes Microsoft's servers seem to have been going down every now and then. Keep trying for a bit and see if you can get connected. If its the Bluetooth thing...... have you tried disabling the driver in Device Manager? Finally, have you ran a sfc/scannow to find and possibly repair any corrupted system files? We have many excellent tutorials here at the forums,heres one on how to do that if you haven't before, just click on the link : SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker

    Are you talking about .HLP or .CHM files?

    Thanks for responding.
    I can get on the internet. I have not gotten involved with the .hlp or .chm files.
    Another fellow thought it might be Bluetooth causing the problem and advised
    changing the registry to delete it from there. I could not do that in Windows 7 pro 64-bit
    as his instructions were faulty.
    It seems that Microsoft has decided to eliminate the Helps Files from Window 7.
    If you have windows 7 go to the help files and you will see the absurd message
    that I got and posted here as an attachment.

    What IS the problem exactly?

    The help files work fine for me as well as the online help.

    Win7 Help and Support


    Same problem,

    A friends laptop started rebooting at the splash screen, so I booted into Safe Mode to try to go back to a good configuration, went to Help and Support, and found all this about elbauser.

    Went through the whole thing regarding:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Assistance\C lient\1.0\Namespaces\OEM\en-US\Topics.

    but found that there was no "en-US" in the list thoughts? TIA

    Checked your firewall to see if it's blocking it?
