I have in my old laptop a dual boot setup of windows11 and zorin os. But I am interested in switching Zorin to OpenSUSE tumvleweed. How can I safely do it without losing the data?

    The simplest way would probably be to just buy some external storage, like a usb drive, and move the files to that before switching. You can buy a 250GB usb hard drive for around $20 on Amazon.

    If you’re not worried about privacy and don’t want to spend money on more storage, you could use a cloud storage service to move your files. I’ve used mega.io to do that in the past, but the amount of free storage is limited.
