Hi,
We have some content to display which is in .hlp format. We are using WINHELP() API to display the help content which worked fine till windows xp and windows 7.
We see now that winhlp32.exe is deprecated in windows 10 and content is not displayed when used WINHELP() API. I have read the microsoft documentation about WINHELP() API and nowhere it is mentioned that this API is obsolete.
With some research i have found that there is another winhlp32.exe which is located in C:\Windows\WinHelp. After copying winhlp32.exe from "C:\Windows\WinHelp" to "C:\Windows", my issue is resolved. i.e WINHELP() API is displaying the help content as we replaced the winhlp32.file.
Can you please suggest us, Is this the right way of doing it or any other better solutions which can resolve the issue?
Ours is legacy code which is being continuing from ages.
Thanks,
Naresh Angi
