Main problem seems to be the installation of chm-files when upgrading. I had to
switch off all security mechanisms to get it done. Which is probably not what
you would like to have in a corporate environment.

As a temporary workaround, it would probably be best to optionally disable chm
installation. Or do a poll if is is required, after all it's considered a legacy
format nowadays.
