I am updating my documentation, and I am not able to find IISHelp which is normally located on C:\Windows 2003 Server under C:\ Windows\Help\IISHelp



Is this another feature Microsoft has moved or extracted from IIS?
 
says nothing. All google talks about is iis help. I am talking about the file iishelp. I have not found one technet article as of yet
 
THis is what I am looking for!

) Optional: Set up an alias for the IISHelp directory (at the web root)
This option allows the web server to display more detailed error messages to users when errors occur in scripts.
? Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
? Right-click the root web site node (identified by this icon: )
? Select New -> Virtual Directory, click Next
? Enter “IISHelp” for the Virtual Directory Alias, click Next
? Browse or enter the following path:
Windows 2000 server: “C:\WINNT\Help\iisHelp”
Windows 2003 server: “C:\Windows\Help\iisHelp”, click Next
? Check both “Read” and “Run Scripts”, Leave all other options un-checked, click Next
? Click Finish

But it needs to be within IIS 7 and windows Server 2008

Any ideas?
