I explored the available choices and found an option that lets you retain your personal files and applications. It’s designed to preserve your data without needing a backup PC at the moment. The specific folders included depend on your setup, but generally it covers your usual documents, settings, and installed programs.

Installed applications and their data, user accounts, personal files not included in Windows, plus system components such as drivers will remain. However, the Windows installation and related elements will be deleted.

Yes, it would be safe as long as you're using your own user folder and not a system or shared location.

In theory it's possible, but if you're worried you can save any crucial information elsewhere.
