Note: if you download the zip file, depending on how you unzip the file you may need to "Unblock" the help file. You can do so by right clicking on the "CSharpDriverDocs.chm" file and selecting Properties, and then clicking on the "Unblock" button. You will need to "Unblock" the help file if you see the message "Navigation to webpage was canceled" where the help text would normally appear.
