I had hoped that someone from the Document Foundation would have answered as opening the help window does not add a process to those running, meaning that it is handled within LibreOffice not a browser or external html editor, and should not be OS dependent. Looking at the available commands for the menus tab in Tools>Customization (personalization in Spanish), the tool tip for help shows (translating from my Spanish interface): Label: LibreOffice Help Command: uno.HelpIndex Popup description: LibreOffice Help So help here apparently depends on having the LO pyuno package installed. What pops up for help on my system is a dual pane window with the index to the left (with ability to search) and help text on the right. Above the index of help items is a box to specify the LO component for which one is seeking help. While I doubt it's worth much, I have both Firefox (default) and Vivaldi installed.
