HtmlHelp(). The problem of opening another file.

Question

I want to open a chm file with the same name with different paths.

1. c:\1.0\test.chm
2. c:\2.0\test.chm
3. c:\3.0\test.chm
   When it is said that a file with the same name exists in a different path as above, I'd like to open each file using htmlhelp().

I tried to open it sequentially by changing the path, but the files that were first opened continue to open.
This phenomenon continues until the process ends.
Is there a way to solve it?

I used a translator. Please excuse me.

Hi there,

Microsoft Security Updates block the display of CHM file contents when opened from a network drive (or a UNC path). This is Windows' attempt to stop attack vectors for viruses/malware from infecting your computer and has blocked out the .chm file that draws data over the "InfoTech" protocol, which this chm file uses.

Right-click the chm file, and you will get the "yourfile. chm Properties" dialog box, at the bottom, a button called "Unblock" appears. Click Unblock and press OK, and try to open the chm file again.

Add the following value to the registry and might also solve the problem.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTMLHelp\1.x\ItssRestrictions]
"MaxAllowedZone"=dword:00000001

Hope this resolves your Query!!
