My computer is going bye bye soon. How to copy and paste data / settings to new computer? So long I have a Logitech MX series mouse that can transfer text to the new computer. But what about browser settings and bookmarks? Is there any way to transfer?

I recently needed to move a friends Operating System to a new disk as they were running out of drive space - we used the Windows tools to make a backup and then restored it on the new disk using the process here - https://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-10/how-to-migrate-windows-10-to-a-new-hard-drive/

Keep in mind this moves everything, including device drivers, and overwrites everything on the destination drive. You may want to physically move the disk to the new machine first to see if the OS will even boot and run that way - if it does you can decide to stay on the old disk, using the new one for your personal data, or restore the image to the new (likely faster) drive.
