F1 Help with Oracle Manuals

[sandmountain]

Situation:
We have PL/SQL Developer installed on a zentral Network Drive.
Each user link to this Drive.
On the zentral Drive we have also HTML Manuals installed. To use this manual you normally go to Help->HTML Manuals->Book->Setup->
I:\PLSQL Developer\externalDoc\Oracle_92
and say Build, which create the indexes in
I:\PLSQL Developer\Books
F1 works fine for me now!

For other user F1 does not work!But everything is in place. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for your answer.

The other users still need to perform a small part of the setup. They do not need to create the indexes (they will use the ones you created), but will need to select the books they want to use for help and press the "Apply" button. After that, they are done.

The "Apply" button does not work in our environment: Pressing it twice disables the button and the "Search" tab is not activated. Our configuration is:
- Server directory is completely write-protected
- Access to registry is restricted.
- The personal preferences are stored on a user specific network-drive
Question:
Where is the F1 (Selected Books) information stored? (registry, preferences, server, ...??)

Where is the F1 (Selected Books) information stored? (registry, preferences, server, ...??)

They are stored in the user registry at:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Allround Automations\PL/SQL Developer\Books
