In Windows Vista (mine is Business version) my Help and Support would not open. Said something about like:

“internet explorer cannot download from / help”

For some reason, Dreamweaver 8 install messed this up.� The fix was to tweak the file type association.� I just did� a simple registry update, but there might be other ways.

In the registry I had this:

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.xml]

@="xmlfile"

"Content Type"="application/x-xml"

"PerceivedType"="text"

Under HKCR\.xml key, I had a Content Type of “application/x-xml” set.� I updated that to “text/xml”

So the final fix should look like this:

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.xml]

@="xmlfile"

"Content Type"="text/xml"

"PerceivedType"="text"

And my Help and Support started to work!
