Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: Windows-specific tools (e.g., robocopy, Explorer), Windows-centric examples (e.g., mounting NFS shares from Windows paths, custom script extension troubleshooting for Windows VMs), and PowerShell-based workarounds. Linux equivalents are often missing or mentioned only as an afterthought. In some cases, instructions are exclusively for Windows environments, leaving Linux users without guidance.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux examples for all Windows-specific instructions, such as mounting NFS shares, troubleshooting VM extensions, and using command-line tools.
  • Mention Linux tools (e.g., rsync, cp) alongside Windows tools like robocopy and Explorer for file operations.
  • Include Linux shell commands and procedures where PowerShell is referenced, especially for device management and troubleshooting.
  • Ensure that workarounds and examples are presented in a cross-platform manner, with both Windows and Linux steps given equal prominence.
  • Review all device management and update instructions to confirm Linux parity and add missing Linux-specific guidance.
