Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

windows_tools
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates mild Windows bias. PowerShell is mentioned as an alternative method for creating custom images, and uploading VHD files via PowerShell is listed as a primary option. Windows tools (sysprep) are referenced before their Linux equivalents (deprovision), and the OS selection UI lists Windows before Linux. However, Linux is supported and referenced, and AzCopy (cross-platform) is included as an upload method.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Bash/CLI examples for Linux users alongside PowerShell instructions.
  • Ensure Linux tools (e.g., waagent deprovision) are described with equal detail as Windows sysprep.
  • Alternate the order of Windows and Linux references in UI instructions to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Add screenshots or walkthroughs using Linux environments where relevant.
  • Clarify that AzCopy and Storage Explorer are cross-platform and provide usage notes for Linux/macOS.
