Sometimes we tend to enable the context sensitive help while creating a project, how to disable that later and get rid or error/information pops on clicking F1 while the application is running.

Open the mainfrm.cpp and comment out the help commands
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMainFrame, CFrameWnd)
    ON_WM_CREATE()
    // Global help commands
//  ON_COMMAND(ID_HELP_FINDER, &CFrameWnd::OnHelpFinder)
//  ON_COMMAND(ID_HELP, &CFrameWnd::OnHelp)
//  ON_COMMAND(ID_CONTEXT_HELP, &CFrameWnd::OnContextHelp)
//  ON_COMMAND(ID_DEFAULT_HELP, &CFrameWnd::OnHelpFinder)
        ON_MESSAGE(WM_SET_STATUS_BAR_TEXT, &CMainFrame::SetStatusBarText)
END_MESSAGE_MAP()
