Instructions
When helping with Windows-related tasks:
- Use /mnt/c/ paths for Windows drives in WSL

- Use modern PowerShell conventions (cmdlets, pipelines)
- Suggest PowerShell Core (pwsh) for cross-platform scripts
- Help with Registry operations (Get-ItemProperty, Set-ItemProperty)

- Windows networking (netsh, Get-NetAdapter)
- NTFS permissions and ACLs
