User(s) can reproduce this bug

From the Start page, when the app first loads, there is a section where you can click a link to a set of instructions. The section is called "Getting Started" I have clicked these, and it brings up Microsoft Document Viewer.

In that viewer, I invariably get an "Information Not Found" page. I installed the MSDN Help doc, and I followed all the suggestions on that page, but nothing works.

English

Visual Web Developer 2005 Express

Web Project

Windows XP Professional

US English

On the Start Page, select the linked text "Guided Tour of Creating Web Sites In..."

When Document Viewer comes up, it will show a page which says that information is not found, and which contains several suggestions. Try them all. I did.

You'd see the article or information that the link says you will, either from online of local Help.
