Ok I am believing you so I am leaving that Multibit Classic behind and switch over to HD because of the advantages you mention.

However many persons are having the same problem of their transaction getting stuck without any reason, and as far as I know no improvement yet over this or have I been not careful in reading this part of the forum ?

Most transactions are stuck because of the fee people pay. I am not using either multibit wallets, but IIRC multibit HD has a more updated way to select a good fee. Its still difficult to find a good fee, as no one knows that exact state of the network at the moment a TX is issued, and no one knows how the network will be 2,3 or 10 minutes in the future when the next block is found.

Lately I have upgraded my PC and the former I had , I still have it but will format it soon with Windows as I will gift it to a friend of mine. I have a Multibit Classic there with a lot of wallets some of them even containing really little bitcoin on them(not that important to me) but I want to know how can I copy my Multibit Classic in a USB and use on my new computer if there is a way.

On my new PC I will install Multibit HD but if there's a way why not have both classic and HD.

...because Multibit HD is a significant improvement over Multitbit Classic.

#1 Its HD so you only need a single backup
#2 Its still developed so you still get improvements
#3 Its significantly harder to crack with brute force
#4 it supports hardware wallets

However if you want to use both you can. The file locations can be found here[1] and here[2].
