Verifying Your Installation

  • Launch AnySlate - it should open without errors
  • Check Help → About to verify the version number
  • Try creating a new file (⌘/Ctrl + N)
  • Type some Markdown and verify the preview works

Troubleshooting

macOS: "App is damaged and can't be opened"

This happens if the app loses its signature. Open Terminal and run: xattr -cr /Applications/AnySlate.app

Windows: SmartScreen warning

Click "More info" then "Run anyway". This warning appears because AnySlate is a new app building reputation with Microsoft.

Linux: AppImage won't run

Make sure FUSE is installed: sudo apt install libfuse2

Automatic Updates
