NEW Laptop for X-mas

Hi guys, I received a new HP "notebook" {Windows 10} for Christmas.. Nothing wrong w/ the Acer "Aspire" I've been using for years, {windows 7} its just one of those gifts from the wife that you gotta accept..
Anywho.. without doing a search I thought I'd ask first & search later..
HOW do I get my info off the OLD onto the NEW?? I have a lot of files & favorites I'd like to keep..
Is it as simple as buying a "stick".. jamming it in the side, pressing a few buttons & plugging the "stick" into...
