I keep my help "local" vs. "online".
However, in my developer edition of SSMS (2014),
I constantly get "cannot find requested content on your computer".
However, in my Help Library Manager it says:
Books Online
Developer Reference
MS SQL Server Language Reference
What am I missing ? I don't understand why some content is available and other content is not ?
For instance, it cannot even find help on "UPDATE".

Apologies for the obvious question... did you download "Books Online" (the help system you're looking for) and install it? It is no longer installed automatically nor even provided on the installations disks.

Yes I did Jeff and it is showing up when I go:
Help,Manage Help Settings, Choose online or local help
And when I click on "Check for Updates", It says "Books Online Status=Up To Date"
HOWEVER:
In the Settings form, the library location says: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\HelpLibrary
and the HelpLibrary folder does not exist and it is not hidden either.
Very strange....and I can't change the library location.
The main reason I am being so anal about this is that I detest online help.
It can't be annotated, and specific topics sometimes cannot be bookmarked.
