Minecraft wiki entry for Tutorial_hints, associated text: The gameplay stages of the tutorial is stored as tutorialStep: in the options.txt file in the game directory, except the Social Interactions hint, which is stored as joinedFirstServer:, so they are kept per device and per directory (you can set up more profiles with different game directories in the launcher options). After the last guide is shown, the value none is saved. Changing TutorialStep to this value (the game must be closed beforehand) prevents the instructions from appearing.
