How do I save an edited JavaScript file?

Question

This is my first day working with RoboHelp HTML.  I've read some of the documentation, but I cannot find how to get an edited script file's changes to save after generation.  When we launch the generated Help, a popup box appears with this message: "The webpage you are viewing is trying to close the window. Do you want to close the window?".   I can fix the problem of by adding this line of JavaScript code: "window.open('', '_self', '');"  after line 174 in the loadcsh.js script.  The problem is that this file gets overwritten every time the project is generated.

You'll want to update the seed files. There are located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 2015\RoboHTML\ResponsiveHelpExt\widgets\common\scripts (Assuming you are using Responsive HTML5 output)

But in this case, you can also change the CSH call of your application to avoid the popup. See: http://www.wvanweelden.eu/articles/context-sensitivity-responsive-and-multiscreen-html5
