Control Panel->System Properties->Advanced->Environment Variables and change TEMP and TMP to point to wherever you want.

I am not familiar with the software you have listed, but is the problem in the decompilation state or in the PDF conversion stage? Try the M$ one I linked to if you think the problem is in the first stage, but I suspect it will give the same output. I have not had this issue with any CHMs I have tried, but I haven't tried too many. If the problem is that the HTML->PDF coversion isn't perfect, try a few other converters. Like I said, Acrobat works for me. If the HTMLs come out fine, I'm guessing there must be some way out there to get it to look right on a PDF, with proper text wraping and margins.
