Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently listing Windows troubleshooting steps and examples before Linux equivalents, providing more detailed instructions for Windows (including use of Windows-specific tools like services.msc and Control Panel), and omitting comparable Linux troubleshooting details (e.g., how to check agent status or uninstall/reinstall the agent on Linux). Windows tools and patterns are referenced explicitly, while Linux instructions are more generic and less actionable.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows troubleshooting steps in parallel, or alternate which platform is listed first.
  • Provide Linux-specific instructions for checking agent status (e.g., using systemctl, ps, or service commands) and uninstalling/reinstalling the agent.
  • Include Linux command-line examples for all steps given for Windows, such as verifying installation, restarting services, and checking dependencies.
  • Reference Linux equivalents for Windows tools (e.g., instead of services.msc, show how to check service status on Linux).
  • Ensure parity in detail and actionable steps for both platforms throughout the documentation.
