Good Afternoon,
I'm Cletus(a Web Developer using Kubuntu Linux Destro), and I want to switch to Debian (that was my first choice of Destro, just that I wasn't able to install and configure it)

So I want to know wether it's possible to switch to Debian without looking my files ?
Yes. Copy all of your Data files to an external device... such as a USB drive.**

for your Kubuntu they are Probably all in the /home directory

for Windows I am not familiar on where they are kept.

When you have them ALL safely copied off machine then proceed with whatever method you like to install Debian.

After your install, form a Backup Plan for your Data (all of your personal files), and Use that Backup routine Frequently.**
Best of luck!.

PS: installing Windows again may be a challenge. Figure out how to do that First.
**system install is trivial, your Data is not replaceable. Backup!


N/B: I'm running Kubuntu and Windows currently (I still want to keep my Windows)
