Is it possible to switch workplaces from a broken computer to a new one?

So my computer broke down a few days ago with my mcreator workplace in it. I want to know, if possible, how to transfer the workplace from my broken computer to my new one.

Yes you can, but first make sure the hard drive (hdd) or solid state drive (ssd) is not the cause. if it is a laptop ... remove the hdd or ssd. Connect it to your new pc with a hdd/ssd 2.5 to usb 3.0 adapter (it costs from 5 to 20 USD) ... similar to this:

Look for the workspace or anything else you would like to recover and transfer it to your new pc. If your pc has an m.2/NVMe, do the same but you will need a m.2 to usb 3.0 adapter (it costs from 15 to 40 USD) ... similar to this:

The old pc needs to be powered down to disconnect it, but you don't need to power down the pc to connect them thru usb. Do a good research before buying these parts, or ask a computer technician (they will charge for that).
