Summary
The documentation exclusively describes silent installation of the Azure File Sync agent using Windows-specific tools (msiexec), with all examples and parameters tailored for Windows Server environments. No Linux or macOS installation methods, commands, or equivalents are provided, and the documentation assumes a Windows context throughout.
Recommendations
- Clarify in the introduction that Azure File Sync agent is only available for Windows, if that is the case.
- If Linux/macOS support exists or is planned, provide equivalent installation instructions and examples for those platforms.
- Explicitly state platform requirements and limitations to avoid confusion for non-Windows users.
- If possible, mention alternative solutions or approaches for Linux/macOS users who may be seeking similar functionality.
