Or, just simply save those docs into a thumb drive and leave them on a thumb drive as a backup file, but just make sure the new W10 program can open them.  You probably won't be able to save them in whatever email format your current Windows system has them because they probably won't open. Or, if these are on two separate computers/laptops, email them to yourself at your new email program from your old email program if you want to keep them in email format.  In any case, just be aware that saving them in email format will likely mean you can't open them in a new operating system or email system without the conversion to a compatible document format.
