Summary
The documentation page shows evidence of Windows bias in several areas: Windows-specific tools (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell, RDP, waappagent.exe) are mentioned as workarounds or examples, sometimes without Linux equivalents. Windows commands and troubleshooting steps are given in detail, while Linux alternatives are often missing or less emphasized. In some cases, Windows instructions precede or are more complete than Linux ones.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux examples and commands wherever Windows tools (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell) are referenced. For example, suggest rsync or cp for file copying.
  • Include Linux troubleshooting steps for VM guest agent issues, not just Windows VM instructions.
  • When mentioning connecting to the device via PowerShell, also describe how to connect using SSH or Linux command line.
  • Ensure that examples and workarounds are presented for both Windows and Linux clients, ideally side-by-side.
  • Review all command-line examples to ensure Linux syntax is included where relevant (e.g., mount commands, process management).
  • Avoid referencing Windows tools first or exclusively in tables and lists; strive for parity in documentation structure.
