If he set WriteHelpProjectFile explicitly to No:

[MSHtmlHelpOptions]
WriteHelpProjectFile=No

then no .hhp woud be written.  If he did not set it, and thus
left it at the default (of Yes), an .hhp would be written 
*unless* one already existed.  If he set it explicitly to Yes:

[MSHtmlHelpOptions]
WriteHelpProjectFile=Yes

then a new .hhp would always be written, overwriting the
previous one.

It's possible he's set an HHPFileName that can't be written
because it's on a nonexistent drive, or points to a directory
where he lacks write permission, or is an invalid file name.

HTH!
