"Delete all files in output folder before export" is the checkbox for Webhelp. You need to check it. The other one is only used if you publish to HMTL Help.

I would suggest to make a repair & recover run in HM4 first and then convert the project again. If you then have any troubles with WinHelp publishing send an email to the support including the the project.

I give in the "#include another help file" the hmx-file to include. And the name of the hmx-File and the chm must match.
You can change this afterwards in the "Topic Options" tab.
