Q: Updating my computer
Hey, I have a Macbook Pro (mid 2012) and I want to know if when I update it to the newest update (OSX El Capitan), if it will delete all of my files. My biggest worry is that my iMovie projects will go away if I update the computer. Does someone know if it will delete my files? If so, is there a way to save them so that I can have them with the new update? P

If the update completes successfully it should not delete any files.
However, it is highly recommended you keep a backup of important files on an external drive.
You can use Time Machine built in to Osx to maintain an updated backup.
