Posted June 4, 2020 Maybe you can try uploading all the files from the old on to a cloud provider like google drive then download them on the new one. I am far from an expert in this so please correct me if I’m wrong.

It's got a port for it but I can't connect it to my router because my router is across the house. can I connect the Ethernet cable to my laptop from the pc and use it like that?
