There is a weird thing that sometimes happens when try to access chm help files that you have extracted from a zip file manually -- windows won't open it properly and it shows a blank contents when it opens.  the solution is to find the file, right click on it and choose properties, and then choose unlock.

This is an example of Microsoft doing things horribly wrong.
