Hi,

modern programs install in wine in '.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/'

However, when they put their help files here, possibly due to the () in the
path, wine cannot find the help files anymore.

To reproduce:

put a .chm file in .wine/drive_c
launch wine explorer
navigate to C: and click on the the .chm file. It opens just fine in the hh chm
viewer.

Now move the .chm file in .wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/
as before launch wine explorer
navigate to C:Program Files (x86)/
click on the .chm file.  Another instance of the wine explorer opens.
