Unblocking CHMs

Windows security may block CHM files downloaded from the internet. When opening a CHM file, the file may open but display one of the following messages instead of the expected content:

  • Navigation to the webpage was canceled.
  • Action canceled.

If either of these messages display, unblock the file.

  1. In Windows Explorer, right-click the SDK_Documentation.chm file and choose Properties.
  2. On the General tab, click the button labeled Unblock.
  3. Click OK.
  4. Open the file.
