Delphi 10.3 help

Recommended Posts

I have Delphi 10.3.3 installed (for sometime) but have only started using Delphi recently.   I had selected to install the help files; but when I press F1,  no help file appears.  I click on the Help -> Rad Studio Help.   But nothing appears either.

 

I had installed Delphi 10.3.3 in F:\delphi,  and that path exists as does f:\delphi\help (and the .chm files)

 

Is it possible to manually setup the help file?  Might it be a registry hiccup that has Delphi 10.3.3 failing to see the help files?

 

Thanks

To answer my own question, I ended up finding out that for some reasons, the paths for the registry keys at :

HKCU\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\20.0\Help\HtmlHelp1Files

 

were all pointing to some non existing directory.   I changed them to reflect where the actual

help files were located and now I have help.

 

Thankfully, I had 10.2 installed so just needed to compare the registry info.
