For my friends who aren't terribly computer literate I set them up so everything backs up to the cloud. Then when they lose or break their computers, they haven't lost their photos and data. I suggest that whatever else you do, when you get it up and running, set up a Dropbox account (very easy to use but limited space unless you share it to devices to earn more space or pay for the space) or Microsoft's very generous OneDrive. They want you to set up an Outlook or Hotmail email address to use it, but since most computers these days want you to use the Windows cloud, why not, and save yourself the grief of lost files in the future?
