VH Troubleshooting


Common Problems Opening VH Files

Microsoft Windows Not Present

When you double-click your VH file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". Usually, this is because you do not have Microsoft Windows for %%os%% installed. The OS won't know what to do with your VH file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.


Tip: If you know of another program that can open your VH file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.


Obsolete Version of Microsoft Windows

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a WinHelp VH Data file that is unsupported by your installed application version. If you've got the wrong version of Microsoft Windows installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This issue mainly occurs when your WinHelp VH Data file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Windows than you have on your PC.


Tip: If you right-click on your VH file, then select "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), you can obtain hints about what version you need.


Conclusion: The majority of VH file opening issues are due to not having the correct Microsoft Windows version installed.


Other VH File Opening Causes

Assuming you have the right Microsoft Windows version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening VH files. If you are still having problems opening VH files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. These issues include:
