Which hhc.exe does RH5/RH9 use?

Which is the actual help compiler that an RH9 installation (or RH5/X5) is using? I found there is a hhc.exe

on one of my machines in c:\program files (x86)\Microsoft HTML Workshop but on the other machine on which I installed RH9 and RH5 recently there is no hhc.exe at all. Is it hidden somewhere in the bundles that Adobe RH installs?

That is the one Christoph. You will need to install the HTML Help Workshop on these other PCs. It is not installed by RH as it is a Windows component that should normally be already there.

Wait a minute: On that XP machine I did a search over the complete C:\ drive and it revealed no HHC.EXE being there but RH5 and RH9 run on this machine.

Thus my question: Which Microsoft HTML Help compiler do they use then?

I believe Rh does use its own installation and a search will not reveal either. I'm digging.
