The file "wordpad.chm" is a special help file which contains links to the local Windows file system. If you copy "wordpad.chm" to a network share, you wouldn't be able to display/ browse the file in Windows, too.
You should not use .chm files that have been copied from an existing Windows installation. Any other help file that belongs to the setup of a regular Windows application should be fine for testing operations.
Well, if "wordpad.chm" is the only file you have problems with, we should close this bug.
Not meaning to undervalue your words, but I was using wordpad.chm after extracting it straight from an ISO file (so it cannot load any external documents). Besides as I mentioned earlier hh.exe _shows_ pages from this help file when you browse Index or access them via Search facility.
KchmViewer from KDE4 shows this file perfectly albeit without embedded pictures.
So, this bug is still valid.
