Chm File Cannot Display Pages
Kiran 2101413 2 This is a dupe from more popular Stackoverflow question: stackoverflow.com/questions/11438634/… –Eric Leschinski Dec 5 '12 at 19:26 add a comment| 6 Answers 6 active oldest votes up vote 15 down vote accepted Other than what Nicolas suggested, you may not be able to see contents of a CHM that you open over a UNC path. If that is the case copy the file to a local drive. share|improve this answer answered Dec 9 '10 at 16:46 Otávio Décio 54k9124189 Nice. this is the problem..

26, 200646 0 0 0 I had couple of .CHM files, specially for C# .NET related stuff and I saw some of the chm files when I open them I see "This page cannot be displayed" error. Finally I figured out https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/neerajag/2006/04/26/ever-wondered-why-your-chm-files-does-not-work/ that there could be two reasons for this: [Option 1 courtesy chan.chawla from the posted comment, adding as the first option to be tried out before going any further] 1. Double click the .chm file. It will open a security dialog. Uncheck "Always ask after opening this file". Alternatively, right click on the file you want to open, click Properties and then click Unblock. This should do chm file the trick. 2. If you chm file name or the path contains ‘#' character, just get rid of that and I guess you would be able to start viewing your chm files again. 3. If nothing works, try this. Because of a Microsoft Service Pack, the chm files does not have enough permissions (by default). This case is usually when you try to open .chm files over network. chm file no The resolution for this is as follows: Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK. Locate and then click the following subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTMLHelp\1.x\ItssRestrictions [If this registry subkey does not exist, create it] Right-click the ItssRestrictions subkey, point to New, and then click DWORD Value. Type MaxAllowedZone, and then press Enter. Right-click the MaxAllowedZone value, and then click Modify. In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK. Quit Registry Editor. For more information check http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896358. 4. One more reason provided for unable to open chm files [courtesy colin.cole] Any chm file that is in a folder named *.col* will not open. Example paths that will cause this error: c:\asdf.col\TFSInstall.chm c:\documents and settings\john.coltrane\desktop\TFSInstall.chm Solution: Move file somewhere else on your computer.

In order to view the help documents properly, the checkmark must be cleared from the ‘Always ask before opening this file’ check box. The files will then open properly from the PC. Alternativel
