Summary
The documentation exhibits several signs of Windows bias. There are multiple references to Windows-specific tools and workflows (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell, Windows VM Guest Agent, RDP), and some examples are provided only for Windows environments. In several cases, Linux equivalents are either missing or mentioned after Windows tools. For instance, the workaround for blob refresh recommends robocopy and Explorer, both Windows tools, without mentioning Linux alternatives. PowerShell is referenced for device management, and the process for handling custom script VM extensions is detailed only for Windows VMs. There are also missing Linux command examples where relevant.
Recommendations
- For every Windows-specific tool or command mentioned (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell), provide equivalent Linux alternatives (e.g., rsync, cp, bash/ssh).
- When giving example commands (such as mounting NFS shares), include both Windows and Linux syntax, and present them in parallel or alternate order.
- In sections referencing Windows VM management (e.g., RDP, Windows Guest Agent), add guidance for Linux VM scenarios where applicable.
- Avoid assuming the user is on Windows by default; use neutral language and clarify when a step is OS-specific.
- Audit the documentation for other implicit Windows-first assumptions and update to ensure Linux users receive equal clarity and support.
