@TsarScarlett , G'day
OK - You will need to tell us a whole lot of things about your computer setup, and what you are looking to do with Linux. You will also need to do a fair bit of reading for yourself, and a fair bit of Googling (or search engine of your choice - DuckDuckGo is another popular one in our community that yields a lot of Linux-focused results).
So patience is important, and also safeguarding your Windows in case anything goes wrong. I'll try to number my questions, so be sure to answer all questions as best you can.
1. Is it Windows 10?
2. Is the computer yours for your use only, or shared with others in the household?
3. Do you have a backup system in place for safeguarding personal data, and if so, is that to an external drive, cloud storage or somewhere else that is independent of the computer?
4. Please tell us your specs (specifications) of the computer, eg Dell Inspiron 5770, that is, brand and model number, we could also use processor and RAM (memory) details.
In the reading department, make friends with DistroWatch.com , and in particular their Page Hit Ranking which features near top right of their front page. The top 50 or so of the 275 Linux listed there will likely have the best support, and you can follow some of the links to see what they look like and do.
...and what you are looking to do with Linux.
for example - coursework, word processing, general web surfing and email, Gaming and so on.
We won't invade your privacy, other than that I'll ask what your Timezone is, as we are from all around the world, so some answers will be quicker than others.
I may or may not be heavily involved in helping you, as this Wizard has many things to do around the Forum, as you may see, but I do run 59 Linux on this rig, so chances are whatever you choose I may have an opinion on, which I will share if I can.
Cheers
Wizard
