You&#39;all do know how to do that, Help and Community off the start menu, Manage Help Settings. But downloading BOL gets CTP1 also.&nbsp; Online BOL is still CTP1, last time I tried. Bummer.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nSo I was about to suggest a game of &quot;find the feature&quot;, when I found the books online. It&#39;s off the feature pack site here. Direct link is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/download\/details.aspx?id=347\">here<\/a>. Ignore the fact that the page says CTP1. The file says CTP3. And it is&#8230;.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nJust in case you haven&#39;t done this before:<br \/>\n1. Download the books online exe<br \/>\n2. Run it, choose a location to unzip the contents. They unzip into a directory called &quot;DenaliCTP3Layout&quot;. <br \/>\n3. You should now fire up Help and Community\/Manage Help Settings<br \/>\n4. You should already be configured for local help. After doing this..<br \/>\n5. Choose &quot;Install Content From Disk&quot;<br \/>\n6. Navigate the to &quot;DenaliCTP3Layout&quot; directory (you did put it where you could find it, right?)<br \/>\n7. Select the .msha file (HelpContentSetup.msha) and you&#39;re good to go.<br \/>\n8. A few minutes later, open up your new Denali CTP3 Books Online. Voila!\n<\/p>\n<p>\nSo *now* lets play &quot;find the feature&quot;. With the aid of the Books Online. Much easier that way. The feature list (or most of it) is <a href=\"http:\/\/3.209.169.194\/blogs\/bobb\/whats-new-in-denali-ctp1-and-what-isnt-in-ctp1\/\" class=\"broken_link\">here<\/a>. What&#39;s not in CTP1&nbsp;IS in CTP3.
