How big is the capacity? If it’s 256GB (for example), you can buy a 256 GB memory stick from Amazon for £20-ish and back up the data.

And this page will tell you the rest…

If it’s windows, https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...8-52ef2b88cbef

If it’s Mac, https://support.apple.com/en-gb/mac-backup

From what you describe it sounds like the processor fan needs stripping and cleaning.Easy to do though a local pc repair man should do it for 20-30 quid.Ive done my 10yr old laptop a few times and is always back to normal.(quiet and doesn't overheat)

If chrome is your main browser, just type password manager in the URL address place.
You'll get a list of all the websites you frequent and that requires a password which chrome has saved. Check you've got got everything there. When you access chrome from another computer sign in and you should have them available automatically.
I'm no expert but I swear it was that simple when I switched a year or so back 😃
