1. download and burn the setup media
2. meanwhile backup your home directory (including the hidden folders)
3. install Linux mint
4. extract the backup to your home folder
Further to above:
When installing Linux Mint from the CD (iso), the Ubuntu already on the hard-drive will be automatically detected. You will be asked whether to install Mint alongside Ubuntu, so creating a dual-boot, or use the entire hard-drive for Mint alone, so wiping Ubuntu off the hard-drive.
If you do create a dual-boot system, on booting the computer you will have the choice on using either Mint or Ubuntu.

When you download ubuntu Linux will your original os stay on another user?
Ubuntu generally creates a different partition on your hard drive, formatted with the EXT4 filesystem. Therefore, without special software, you cannot access your files on Ubuntu from Windows. However, you can access your Windows files from Ubuntu without any trouble. When Ubuntu is installed, you get to choose whether to boot into Ubuntu or Windows when the computer turns on. That means that you cannot be actively logged into both Windows and Ubuntu on the same computer. However, you can install Ubuntu on a virtual machine, making the computer run Ubuntu inside an emulator in Windows. This makes it possible to run Ubuntu while you are logged into Windows. I do not recommend it, though. Ubuntu users and Windows users are in different operating systems, so you cannot just switch between them like you can in Windows accounts.
