Where are the "Help" files

The Help files use a Web browser. When you first select "Show Help" from the Help menu, you will be asked to locate your favourite browser (usually Internet Explorer or Netscape). Navigate to it via the usual dialog box, and click "Open." you will then see the help files, and will be able to locate the section you need.

Why can't I open my project by double-clicking on it?

Why does my computer seem to freeze when I'm saving a project?
