You can now get straight to Help: new Help build posted today

Users cried; Adobe listened.

If you are using Premiere Pro CS4, you've no doubt noticed that when you press F1, or select Help > Adobe Premiere Pro Help, you do not go to the Help home page. Instead, you go to the Community Help And Support page. Adobe made this change in order to quickly bring you to the full benefits of the new community search engine and links to all the relevant sources on the web. However, a good number of users still feel they want to go straight to the Help reference, and maybe explore community help separately.

Today, we posted a new build of web Help that gives users the ability to change this default. Clear your browser cache, and go to the updated home page. You may need to refresh your browser a few times. Toward the bottom of the page, under Changing the Help command/F1 default page choose one of the following:

Community Help (all adobe.com Help and support plus selected community expert content)
Help on the Web (product Help system only)

What if you change the default to Help On The Web, then decide you'd like to change it back to Community Help? Fear not, you can.
