START Help and Support?

Question

I got this message "Windows cannot open Help and Support because a system service is not running. To fix this problem, start the service named 'Help and Support' "

So how do I fix this problem?

I tried to do a keyboard diagnostic, and asked for troubleshooting, then it said start help and support, i believe this is something like run MSCONFIG? I cant find it there. How to I "manually" start it.

3. Double-Click on Services
4. Services window opens up
5. Look for "Help and Support" service, double-click it when you find it
6. The properties window for this service should pop up
7. On the General tab, there's a drop down list for "Starup type:", make sure this is set to Automatic
8. Finally, on "Service status:", if you see the word "Stopped", click on the Start button below it to initialize the service
9. Now run Help and Support
