Hello!  I recently switched from RH 5 to 8.0.0.203.
I can not open the .chm files I generate. I get this message from MS

Any advise?

.chm files cannot be opened on a server; copy it to a location on your local machine.

Good luck,

Leon

This is just a single CHM, correct?

Right click it in Windows Explorer and select Properties. See if there is a check box about it being a downloaded file.

This is a single CHM.

I checked the properties. The only check boxes available are:

General tab

Read Only (unchecked)

Hidden (unchecked)

Advanced Button

File is ready for archiving (checked)

For fast search allow Indexing.......(checked)

Compress contents.........(unchecked)

Encrypt contents.....(unchecked)
