What VICE version/bindist are you using? Did you compile vice yourself via msys2 or linux, or did you download some bindist? And if so, what's the revision?
It's from the provided win64 build of GTKVICE-3.4 r37296.

When Vice is installed on a path with a space in one folder the "Help/Browse Manual" dialog in VSID will give the
following error:
"Failed to load PDF ...."
Error when getting information for file "..../vice.pdf": No such file or directory.
Removing the space of the folder where Vice is installed fixes the problem.

#1247That's an old build. I fixed archdep code to get the proper doc/ dir in trunk. I used something like "C:\best veel spaties in dit pad\gtk3vice-bla", works fine.
So please check iout the latest trunk and build vice, or wait for Retroplay's builds:
