Originally created by @sajolida on #10103 (Redmine)
We have 40 things to change as a result from #10047 (closed), so no, we’re not going to track each one in a separate Redmine ticket with broken parenthood. This is sajolida’s plate. The numbers correspond to the lines in https://redmine.tails.boum.org/code/attachments/download/917/windows-testing-issues.fods.
- 6. Rework “Due to” to sound less like an exception.
- 15+16+17. Don’t talk about Tails Installer in “Install temporary Tails”. Rather explain more the specifics of the temporary Tails, maybe as a warning or info.

- 40. Clarify in step 3 that it doesn’t work most of the time; people are lucky if it works.
- 41. Replace “usual operating system” by “Windows”.
- 43. Clarify that Tails will never replace Windows.
- 45. Move troubleshooting sections in collapsed.
- 47. “On most computer” → “On most computers”.
- 48. Rework the sequence in the intro “you need a key”, “boot menu”, “list”.
- 49. Rephrase “Consult the manual of the computer to know how to enter the BIOS settings” to take into account that people don’t have a manual, they will search it online.
- 50. Acknowledge after step 4 the fact that people might not be able to use Tails and that would imply the end of the instructions.

- 64. Give tips about choosing a strong passphrase and link to https://firstlook.org/theintercept/2015/03/26/passphrases-can-memorize-attackers-cant-guess/
