Microsoft Help Viewer 2.0 Beta
What is Microsoft Help Viewer Beta?
Microsoft Help Viewer is the offline help system (local help) developed by Microsoft that ships with Visual Studio. The user experience for Microsoft Help Viewer 1.x is that topics can be viewed in any installed web browser – a separate application, such as the Microsoft Document Explorer included with Microsoft Help 2, is not necessary. The browser-based model is meant to provide a more lightweight navigation, downloading, and reading experience than earlier help-viewer models.
Overview
The software installer includes 5 files and is usually about 12.2 MB (12,795,497 bytes).
