A computer-implemented method of updating an installed computer program can include receiving a user input specifying a query against help documents of a documentation system of the installed computer program and executing the query against the help documents. Responsive to determining a query result, usage information for the documentation system can be stored within computer memory of a computer system. The usage information can include at least one entry, wherein the entry includes at least a portion of the query and the query result, thereby specifying an association between the query and the query result. The usage information can be automatically sent to a remote computer system affiliated with a provider of the installed computer program.
