Conversation
The bug asked for a simple, dedicated doc showing how to implement the PSF "write to install directory" fixup, because the main PSF doc is overloaded. That dedicated how-to now exists (psf-filesystem-writepermission.md), but the overloaded entry-point docs don't route readers to it. Close the discoverability gap instead of duplicating content. - package-support-framework.md (Get started): add a TIP in the File Redirection Fixup section linking to the dedicated write-permission how-to for customers who already know their app writes to its install directory. - package-support-framework-overview.md: point the "writes into the install folder" bullet directly at psf-filesystem-writepermission.md, and the working-directory bullet at psf-current-working-directory.md. - psf-filesystem-writepermission.md: add a Related articles section linking back to the PSF overview, get-started, and the other implement-PSF how-tos. - Bump ms.date on the edited files.

Resolves the doc gap behind Azure Boards work item AB#25600703.
Background
The bug (filed 2020) asked for a simple, dedicated doc showing how to implement the PSF write-to-install-directory fixup, because "the main PSF doc is overloaded." The bug owner later re-scoped it to "write doc on how to use the re-direction in the PSF."
That dedicated how-to now exists—
psf/psf-filesystem-writepermission.md("How to fix Package Support Framework Filesystem Write Permission errors")—a focused, end-to-end walkthrough of the FileRedirectionFixup withredirectedPaths.packageRelative, listed in the TOC under "How to implement PSF in your package" next to the scripting docs. The core ask is delivered; the remaining gap is discoverability: the overloaded entry-point docs don't route readers to it.Change
package-support-framework.md(Get started): added a[!TIP]in the File Redirection Fixup section linking to the dedicated write-permission how-to for customers who already know their app writes to its install directory.package-support-framework-overview.md: pointed the "writes into the install folder" bullet directly atpsf-filesystem-writepermission.md, and the working-directory bullet atpsf-current-working-directory.md.psf-filesystem-writepermission.md: added a Related articles section linking back to the PSF overview, get-started, and the other implement-PSF how-tos.ms.dateon the edited files.No content duplicated—this closes the navigation gap that the bug called out.
