Due to a windows issue not being able to update, I have to do a clean install of Windows onto my boot drive. Im pretty confident about doing the install as Ive done this before but am totally out of my comfort zone with backing up my files on that drive to an external drive or cloud service and then restoring them as I have never done this before. Is there a guide or walkthrough for idiots anyone can recommend just so I can do it correctly? Also, when I do the back-up, wont the windows files also be saved? (sorry,as i said, dont know exactly how all this works.) Thanks
