Revit - Windows 8 and F1 (help) not working

Okay - not sure if anyone has experienced this or not - but within Revit my F1 or any help for that fact is working. It does not bring up wikihelp... win 8 asks what app do I want to use.... Image attached... And I still can't select IE or Chrome

 

now it only affects Revit - worked fine in AutoCAD...

I have run a repair on Revit - that didn't do anything... I did a reinstall - that didn't do anything... My next option is to uninstall and then reinstall...

 

Anyone one experience this? I have broken win 8 once before... I am not too fond of it (not sure it likes me either) and seem to have more issues with it... But I want to make sure I haven't broken Revit somehow (after 9 years of using it and have never broken it.. Not sure too confidant I did now)

 

any ideas?

THanks -

LD

Well - That worked... Although it looks a bit different...

How would it had lost it's connection to begin with?

 

I am starting to think win 8 is out to get me..
