Description

Even installing Linux is a breeze. Thousands of Windows user found Linux is difficult to use and worry about the competity of documents. The goal of Windows Data Migration is provide a one-stop data migration to migrate all Windows data from a Windows System to Linux during installation or even after installation. It will support XP and Vista Windows data.

Features

= A user-friendly, simple GUI with advanced setting will provide the ease of use and flexibility to new comer. = File System (folder) sharing will provide the flexibility when new linux user needs to rely on Windows when needed. User can save data in a special directory/folder for Windows System. = All instance messager, images, audio, movies and documents will be migrated and supported. Associated open-source software, freeware will be installed during migration. =

After a typical user has installed Linux in a pre-existing windows system, there is a number of configuration steps that must be taken before they get a comfortable working environment. This includes personal data like pictures, music, mails etc but also settings like wallpaper. The goal would be to lessen that pain and provide a relatively familiar working environment right after installation.
