fix #575

Removed the original section about escaping the quotes, since in the given example there was no escaping happening and rephrased it in the note about Windows only supporting double quotes:

Before:

In package.json, escape quotes:

"start": "concurrently 'command1 arg' 'command2 arg'"

After:

Important

Windows only supports double quotes:

concurrently "command1 arg" "command2 arg"

Remember to escape the double quotes in your package.json when using Windows:

"start": "concurrently \"command1 arg\" \"command2 arg\""

removed the original section about escaping (there was no escaping) and included it in the note about windows only supporting double quotes.

the failing check is due to prettier running on Readme.md...
Is this intended?
Also, no specific error was reported

Not sure if prettier was complaining because of the missing empty lines between blocks. but since it doesn't affect rendering, I added them, maybe it helps

it seems some API secret might be out of date for the coverage build and thus it is failing.
I might push a dummy change tomorrow to re-trigger it once more, but I don't think this will help.
