Opening a CHM file produces: “navigation to the webpage was canceled”

Question

I am trying to open a .chm file.

I downloaded the source, extracted it, and double clicked on Waffle.chm and clicked \"Open\" but no matter what element

Answer 1

I fixed this programmatically in my software, using C++ Builder.

Before I assign the CHM help file, Application->HelpFile = HelpFileName, I check to see if it contains the "Zone.Identifier" stream, and when it does, I simply remove it.

String ZIStream(HelpFileName + ":Zone.Identifier") ;

if (FileExists(ZIStream))
    { DeleteFile(ZIStream) ; }
