Deleting Files

I want to empty all of the files on my computer onto an external hard drive, to start fresh- but I don't want to delete the files from my iCloud. How do I go about this?

MacBook Pro 13", OS X 10.11

For files see thishttps://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204055

Then drag and drop the files from the location in the finder to an external hard drive see the article https://support.apple.com/en-in/guide/mac-help/mchl027f1d66/mac
