    Help files


    I have an old programme running on my computer which uses Windows help files to display the programme help. The help files are no longer accessible because the required files are not available in W7. If I go online to download the Microsoft files I am asked to choose which download I want. The choice is between Windows6.1-KB917607-x64.msu or similar but ending -x86.msu.

    Sorry if it's a dumb question but how do I know which one to use?
