Summary
The documentation is strongly oriented toward Linux workflows: all command examples use Linux-style paths, Bash commands, and Linux file permission patterns (chmod). There are no PowerShell or Windows Command Prompt examples, nor any mention of Windows-specific SSH key storage locations or usage patterns. While the page claims applicability to both Linux and Windows VMs, it does not provide guidance for Windows users on generating, storing, or using SSH keys with Azure CLI.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples for Windows users, including PowerShell and Command Prompt commands.
- Document typical Windows SSH key storage paths (e.g., C:\Users\<username>\.ssh\).
- Explain how to set file permissions for private keys on Windows, or note differences in security practices.
- Clarify any differences in Azure CLI usage or SSH key handling between Linux/macOS and Windows platforms.
- Consider alternating or parallel presentation of Linux and Windows examples to improve parity.
