Cannot build exe

[BrianInTheForest]

I am trying to make an exe and get this message"The following files have links to help files that are invalid. Open the files and fix the help links."

Does anyone know a procedure to fix this problem?

Can you provide an image of the error message so that we can see which files might be at issue?

P.M.

Here is the error message.

I have the same problem with SVT VIs. I asked for support 4 weeks ago, but did not get any reply.. Here's my log:

I fixed the VIs in question now by going into the individual libraries and then going to properties->documentation and deleting the path to the help file. But in my opinion this is an annoying bug that should be fixed.
