Bias Analysis
Bias Types:
⚠️
windows_first
⚠️
powershell_heavy
⚠️
windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias in several areas: Windows terminology and tools (e.g., 'Download Executable', registry edits, Windows Explorer) are mentioned before their Linux equivalents, and Windows-specific troubleshooting steps are more detailed. PowerShell is referenced in the 'Next steps' section before the Azure CLI. Some sections (e.g., registry changes for large disks) are Windows-only, while Linux equivalents are less detailed or appear later. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows patterns and tools, and Windows steps are often described first.
Recommendations:
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux instructions throughout the document, or present both in parallel where possible.
- Provide equally detailed troubleshooting steps for Linux as are given for Windows (e.g., registry edits vs. Linux config changes).
- In 'Next steps', list Azure CLI and Linux-native tools before or alongside PowerShell.
- Use neutral terminology (e.g., 'Download recovery script' instead of 'Download Executable') and clarify both OS options at each step.
- Where Windows tools (e.g., Windows Explorer, registry) are referenced, provide Linux equivalents (e.g., file managers, relevant config files) with equal prominence.
- Ensure that screenshots and examples are balanced between Windows and Linux environments.
