Get a small filing cabinet. Copy your files to a floppy disk. Take the floppy disk and make a xerox copy of it. Copy files from the floppy disk to the new computer. Put the floppy disk and the xerox copy into the small filing cabinet.
Best approach would be to have someone who is not on TOTV and is knowledgeable about computers perform the transfer for you. Ask if they know Binary and Hexadecimal. Test them by asking the value of 1011 and F0 + 0F. (1011 = 123 F0 + 0F = FF = 255) They will probably mess it up as well, but such is life with Computers that most of us don't really know how to use. |

OP, copying files and using the cloud are two things that you really should learn how to do. You will get a lot more use from your new computer.
Try this: If you have a smart phone, click on the "my files" app and see if the Google Drive appears. If so, this is the easiest cloud drive to use for storing files that can be accessed from anywhere. |

If you want to move files that it is easy. Use a flash drive, or DropBox, or other cloud drive. If you want to move programs then you will have to buy a software program that moves programs too. A program that will transfer programs and more is PC Trans by EaseUS. There are a couple of others as well.

Flash drive or any single point of failure is a recipe for disaster. |
