When I try to open .chm help from a network shared drive I receive the following error:
Navigation to the webpage was canceled.
I know about the .reg solution described on KB896054
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTMLHelp\1.x\ItssRestrictions]
"MaxAllowedZone"=dword:00000001
but it does not work in Windows 7.
Any ideas how to make .chm help available from the network drives?
Edit: I have the network path mapped to P: drive letter. My program runs from P: and I want to see the help for it. Copying the program to local drive is not a solution for me.

Quickest way - but not convenient - drag to your machine and open there.
Technical way - Go to properties and see if you have an unblock button.
This is usually caused by a NTFS flag set from another machine.
I have no idea why other files work but for some reason, .CHM files are affected... I guess it is to do with the way it caches the HTML pages.
