SharePoint manifest error

Today I had the following error (in an english SharePoint farm with dutch language pack) when I clicked the help icon in SharePoint:

“HC niet gevonden. (MS.OSS.manifest , 1043)” (in English: HC not found … )

After some searching I found that I had to check the HelpFold in the Central Administration site. In the Content folder (<CAsite>/HelpFold/Forms/AllItems.aspx) there was no 1043 folder so the help text couldn’t be found. To solve this follow these steps:

1. Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK.
2. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:
   cd %COMMONPROGRAMFILES%\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\BIN
3. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:
   Hcinstal.exe /act InstallAllHCs
