Windows First Windows Tools Missing Linux Example
Summary:
The documentation page lists both Windows and Linux as supported operating systems, but there is a clear Windows bias. Windows Server versions are listed first, and the only anti-malware solution mentioned is Microsoft Antimalware, which is explicitly stated as Windows-only. There are no Linux-specific examples, tools, or guidance, and no mention of Linux equivalents for anti-malware or other management tools. The documentation does not provide Linux-specific considerations or best practices, despite being tagged as part of a Linux collection.
Recommendations:
  • List Linux operating systems before or alongside Windows to avoid the impression of Windows primacy.
  • For each Windows-specific tool or feature (e.g., Microsoft Antimalware), mention Linux equivalents (such as ClamAV, ESET, or other supported anti-malware solutions for Linux) or explicitly state if there is no Linux support.
  • Provide Linux-specific configuration examples, troubleshooting steps, or best practices where relevant.
  • Include notes on any differences in feature support or behavior between Windows and Linux, especially for services like Change Tracking, Update Management, and Machine Configuration.
  • Ensure that documentation sections and examples are balanced between Windows and Linux, especially in articles marked as relevant to Linux.
