# Download Help Center

#

The ALM Help Center provides you with comprehensive user assistance, and is available online or in a downloadable zip file.

Use the online version of the Help Center for the most recent version available.

If your organization has firewall restrictions that prevent you from using the online Help Center, switch to the local mode and install the Help Center locally on your ALM server.

## Access your local help by default

To have ALM access your local help by default, do the following:

1. Open ALM Site Administration. In the Site Configuration tab, add the `USE_LOCAL_HELP` parameter and set it to Y.

2. Stop the ALM service on your ALM server machine.

3. Download the alm_doc_library.zip file to your ALM server.

4. Extract `alm_doc_library.zip` to the following location on your ALM server:

   Windows | `<Deployment path>\webapps\qcbin\Help\doc_library` (By default: `C:\ProgramData\Micro Focus\ALM\webapps\qcbin\Help\doc_library`)
   Linux | `<Deployment path>/webapps/qcbin/Help/doc_library` (By default:`/var/opt/ALM/webapps/qcbin/Help/doc_library`)

5. Restart the ALM service.
