My data on my old hard drive when I transfer it

[victorgrant]

Hello,

I am building a new computer using from scratch for the first time, but reusing my current 2tb hard drive and power supply. I plan on keeping all of my folders on that hard drive when installing windows 10 on the new computer. My plan is to download windows 10 and all of my files from my hard drive (just in case) onto a large enough flash drive, then using that flash drive to install windows onto the new computer.

1) will having the files( my pictures) on the same flash drive as the windows 10 download interfere with the new installation of windows?

2) will i have to delete my hard drive completely to install windows 10?



Please help

Thanks



I didn't find the right solution from the Internet
