I installed Ubuntu 16.04 on my old laptop. I am still in the trial version, is it the same as if i would install in on my drive and if I do can i still go back t my old OS(Windows Vista) and will I lose all my files?
Thanks.

At the beginning it will ask you if you want to try ubuntu or if you want to install it directly – N Z May 09 '20 at 15:31

I see. You can install Ubuntu and keep Windows installed, or replace Windows with Ubuntu. In the latter case, you'll lose your files. – Pilot6 May 09 '20 at 15:32

The "Try Ubuntu" environment does NOT touch your hard drive.
- The default "Try Ubuntu" environment is also not persistent: Anything you change or save will be forgotten at reboot.
Simply unplug the USB and reboot, and your computer should boot into your old Windows normally.
