Default How do I make a Help topic wrap?

Previously when I requested a Help topic, it would wrap -- self-adjusting to
the width of the Help topic window as I widened or narrowed it. I installed
a Microsoft update this afternoon and now Help topics do not wrap -- instead,
I have to scroll left & right. Although I can widen the Help topic window to
stop the scroll, this reduces the viewable width of my Excel spreadsheet. I
can't figure out how to reset the appearance of Help topics so they wrap.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!

I just figured out it was not the Microsoft update that caused the Help
topics not to wrap, it was a different way of obtaining the Help info. If I
go through Help Microsoft Excel Help, the info does not wrap. But if I go
through AutoSum More Functions... Help on this function, it does wrap. I
don't know why Microsoft wouldn't wrap the info regardless of the approach,
but I am happy I found how to make it wrap again!
