a new problem with .chm files?

When I try to use .chm files the left hand side with the table of contents shows up just fine but the info itself doesn't appear on the right hand side.
* There's no error messages
* No # signs in the filepaths
* I'm not using it over the net
* It doesn't matter if it's Microsoft's own .chm file or someone elses
* NOTHING is displayed on the right hand side

 

Well... It turns out that it was just one of those mysterious Microsoft-Windows-Have-No-Idea-What-Is-Going-On type of things...

I just uninstalled recent updates and TADAA! The .chm files work again.. Then I reinstalled the SAME updates one-by-one and they still work...

So what did we learn boys and girls ? That Windows sucks big time and every day it just finds a new way to piss you off !!!

Have a nice day everybody
