Slipgate

Your Data, Your New OS

#

Switching to Linux® is exciting until you realize all your files, browser bookmarks, app settings, and documents are still on your old machine. Moving everything by hand takes hours or even days, and you always forget something.

Slipgate handles it for you. It scans your current machine, backs up your data, moves it to Linux, restores your settings, and puts your files exactly where they belong. It installs your apps on Linux, and if an app isn’t available, it finds and sets up the best alternative for you. You pick up right where you left off.

Slipgate works from Windows®, macOS®, or even another Linux machine. Most people are moving from Windows, but wherever you’re coming from, the process is the same.

Why Not Just Do It Yourself?

#

You could copy your files to a USB drive, manually look up the Linux version of each app, reinstall your browser extensions one by one, re-import your bookmarks, track down your email archives, and hope you didn’t miss anything.

Or Slipgate can do all of that for you in one step.

How It Works

#

Slipgate walks you through a simple step-by-step process: choose where to store your backup, select what you want to bring over, and let it do the rest. On your Linux machine, it unpacks everything, places your files in the right folders, and even finds and installs Linux versions of your apps.

What Slipgate Moves

#

• Your Files: Documents, photos, music, videos, and downloads.
• Your Browsers: Bookmarks, extensions, history, and settings from Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and Brave. For saved passwords, Slipgate provides simple instructions to export them yourself.
