Anyone seen GUIDED HELP?

I think this feature is brilliant and new users will find it so useful. Not
just new users to Vista, but new computer users.

Go to help and for example I wanted to change a file association. So I
typed in file associations and chose the option to change file assocations.
Then it gave me an option to "Do it automatically".

If you choose to do it automatically, the cursor will change and show you
the steps on how to change the file associations, it goes to start button
and so on and open programs for you and take the steps you need to do.
Couple of steps you have to enter yourself like finding a file you wish to
change but its all automated.

Guided help is very good but it needs an undo feature. It is too easy to
make a change that you may not actually want and there are no clear steps to
undo it.
