    Running Windows 8.1 files on Windows 10


    f1jockey.zip

    The file I have posted is a Windows 8.1 help file.

    I no longer have access to Windows 8.1.

    It won't work with Windows 10.

    Windows 10 is using a different program to run it's .hlp extension than the one Windows 8.1 is using. (I hope I explained that right.)

    I believe it will work on Windows 7, 8, 8.1, Vista or XP.
    It doesn't have to be Windows 8.1.

    Maybe somebody who has access to any of these files could upload what I need.

    I have tried the tutorials to no avail.*Sad

    Could someone show me how to do this with this specific file.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
