(I just entered a bug report with this same text as bug #31975)
When I try to click on the "Help" button in the OpenAFS GUI tools (either
the AFS Shell Extension, or the afscreds.exe program), the following error
message is displayed:
Cannot find the C:\Program Files\OpenAFS\Client\Program\afs-nt.hlp
file. Do you want to try to find this file yourself?
I installed the OpenAFS 1.4.1 release with the MSI installer, using the
default settings. The help files got installed in the following paths:
C:\Program Files\OpenAFS\Common\en_US\afs-nt.cnt
C:\Program Files\OpenAFS\Common\en_US\afs-nt.hlp
If I copy these files to the place where the help system seems to expect
them (%PROGRAMFILES%\OpenAFS\Client\Program\), then the help button works
properly.
Should the MSI be adjusted to place these help files in a different path?
Or is something wrong with my system configuration?
Thanks a lot,
