Windows cannot find hcw

I am trying to migrate an old MFC project to VS 2012 and one of the errors I get is this one:

enter image description here

From what I read is that it has something to do with Help Files, which are not supported on Windows 7.

I thought that maybe Windows is searching for the hcw path so I added to the Environment Variables, but I still get the error. From the code I can see that the command is called inside .mak files:

start /wait hcw /C /E /M "hlp\$(InputName).hpj"

Anyone has an idea how can I get rod of the error ?

Just ran into the same issue. VS 6 project promoted to VS2013.

To eliminate the error. remove the Projectname.hpj file from the project.

Your project requires Microsoft Help Workshop.

Could be a problem in the post build step.
