I just want to know how to transfer the data for future reference. I don’t know how, so how do I do it?

Something lost in translation?

Copy the drive to some external and you’ll have your data at the ready for your new computer.

Research this: “321 BACKUP”.

If you don’t backup your data, one day you’ll see why you needed to.

DATA is not apps. Apps are not data.

Or copy it to the cloud and leave it there for reference, or copy it further to your new computer.

To transfer data from your old computer to your new one, you can use an external hard drive or USB flash drive by copying the files from the old computer and then transferring them to the new one. Alternatively, you can use cloud storage (like Google Drive or OneDrive) to upload and then download the files on your new computer. For Windows users, you can also use the Windows File Transfer Tool or a direct cable transfer. Another option is to transfer files over a shared network connection.
