Visual Studio 2012 Help Viewer is broken, how to reinstall?

I uninstalled Help Viewer 3 from VS 2012.

Now I want to reinstall it, but I do not know how to do it.

Using the add / remove program and "Change" VS 2012, there is no way to reinstall the help.

Repair VS 2012 does not install help.

If I run from a VS DVD image file Packages\Help\help3_vs_net.msi, it says that

This component can only be installed during the installation of Visual Studio.

How can I make it reinstall? Is there any switch to go to msiexec to solve the problem?

[Edit] A little progress, according to this thread , I can run msiexec /i help3_vs_net.msi VS_SETUP=1. This installs the help viewer.

Unfortunately, when I start, he says:

A content file required by the Help Viewer is missing or has been corrupted.
