PROFILE

Gurraj Atwal

Worked on enhancing Azure Arc VM extensions documentation in the MicrosoftDocs/azure-management-docs repository over a two-month period, focusing on improving troubleshooting guidance and VM extension removal workflows. Consolidated and clarified documentation by adding a Known issues section, updating error messages related to HandlerManifest.json, and refining formatting for better readability. Promoted the use of the Azure CLI command az connectedmachine extension delete as the primary removal method, while providing manual fallback steps to ensure comprehensive coverage. Employed Markdown for technical writing, collaborated with the documentation team, and utilized Git for version control, resulting in clearer, more actionable guidance for users and support teams.
