I'm really unable to reproduce the problem you're encountering. I don't
have a serial port right now, so I can't test the ht driver, but at
least no and xw drivers give me something:

no:
brltty.exe: Help File: /dev/null
brltty.exe: Help file open error 2: No such file or directory.

xw:
brltty.exe: Help File: brltty-xw.hlp
brltty.exe: Help Page: d:/test/bin/../etc/brltty/brltty-xw.hlp[0]

Could you tell us precisely how you configure/make/install brltty?
There's probably a little nasty step we don't do the same. I usually
just do from MSYS:

$ ./configure --disable-usb-support && make clean && make
$ make install prefix=/d/test

And then run brltty from /d/test/bin/brltty
