Hello,

 

I installed MC5.0 and tryed to start the F1 Help Button, but there is no Help dokumentation available.

How can I fix this?

Windows 10-64Bit

Java is updated

 

Thank you for your help

Volker

Not sure why you don't see the help pages.

 

In Prime 5 there seems to be no local help. Help is only available online.

If you press F1, your default browser should open, connect to support.ptc.com and show the appropriate page.

Start page of the help is

https://support.ptc.com/help/mathcad/en/index.html#page/PTC_Mathcad_Help

So if you have a browser set up working OK and a working internet connection, you should see the help.

You may try a reinstall of P5 or contact PTC support.

Surely you jest!

 

Using the browser to read local files is enough, but no local files?  Wow!!

Not me, its PTCs special sense of humor.
