Tip 602: Mr. FixIt

Microsoft is rolling out a service called Fixit. When the solution to a problem can be fixed by an automated method Microsoft will include the FixIt wizard in the article along with the manual steps.

When a KB offers a prepared fix for the issue described in the article, it will have a Fixit button, as seen in this KB article: //support2.microsoft.com/kb/951291/  

The number of FixIt enabled articles is expected to grow and cover all applications, but at this time most of the FixIt's are for Windows problems – there are a limited number of FixIt enabled articles for Outlook and Exchange server. The Fixit wizard is currently in English only but many of the fixes are supported on Office and Windows in other languages.
