hh.exe is a Microsoft Windows help utility which assists you when the help button is pressed. This program is a non-essential system process, and is installed for ease of use.

how do I get rid of it?

why do you want to get rid of it? hh.exe is a windows program, that runs a "help wizard" It shouldn't be a problem file, either it works or it doesn't, and the only time it should work is when you run the help wizard.

Are you looking to turn it off to stream line your system? If so I don't think it will help much as it doesn't run unless called, so it shouldn't be using any CPU cycles.

Seems to be associated with MS Help file.
Also works off of the help Hotkey.

Do you have something mapped to the keyboard key that brings up the help file?

Other than that everything I have read says its essential and getting rid of it will have adverse effects to your system
