Summary
The documentation page exhibits several instances of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as robocopy, Explorer, RDP, and PowerShell commands) are mentioned exclusively or before Linux equivalents. Some examples and workarounds are provided only for Windows environments, with missing or incomplete Linux alternatives. In some cases, Windows commands are shown without corresponding Linux commands, and Windows VM issues are described in detail while Linux VM issues are not addressed.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all Windows-specific commands and tools (e.g., show Linux file copy commands alongside robocopy/Explorer).
  • Include PowerShell and Bash examples side-by-side for device management and troubleshooting.
  • Document Linux VM guest agent issues and their workarounds if applicable.
  • Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., AzCopy, sqlcmd) with installation and usage instructions for both Windows and Linux.
  • Ensure that examples and instructions are presented in a platform-neutral order or grouped by OS, rather than Windows-first.
  • Clarify when a workaround or feature is Windows-only, and provide Linux alternatives wherever possible.
