If that was intimidating to read,

  1. Copy your files somewhere
  2. Put Linux on a USB
  3. Boot from USB (press f12 or delete or spam your keyboard and pray)
  4. Overwrite your windows with Linux

I would recommend shrinking your drive and making soom room for linux to dual boot if the initial switch seems scary, so yoj can switch between windows and linux.

Over all, it's not hard. You just need to watch a couple of vids and ask for help if you need it.
