Today, suddenly, the Help & Support Center Favorties
Button no longer works and my favorites have all
dissapeared. Does anyone know what could cause this to
happen? Or how to fix it?

If the above repair does not work:

Go to Start > Run and type in: helpctr -regserver

To reinstall Help and Support:
Go to C:\Windows\inf\pchealth.inf.
Right-click and choose install. Have your XP CD available.

Note: The folder is hidden by default. Go to Start > Run and type in:
control folders. View: Show hidden files and folders and uncheck
"Hide extensions for known file types".
