Nice, you did it 
Welcome again and have fun
I love it. Do you know how can I move my app's and settings from elementary?
Log into Elementary and open a terminal.
Run the following command:
sudo dpkg -l | awk '/^ii/ { print $2 }' >package-list
This will produce and save a complete list of all packages installed in a file in your Home Folder. Open that, scan through and remove any Elementary Exclusive apps or apps you do not want anymore. Save.
Move that file to your new Zorin OS installation home folder.
Open a terminal and run:
sudo xargs apt-get install -y < package-list
This command will persist installing each item that it is able to from the package list.
You may need some repositories you had to install all the software you had.
You can use Y PPA Manager to make back ups and restore PPAs from back up. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/y-ppa-manager sudo apt update sudo apt install y-ppa-manager. Click the Advanced button, then the Backup repositories button. Move the saved file to new installation and (You'd have to install y ppa manager over there... lol) and you can use the Restore repositories backup button.
Then run your Install Package List Command noted above.
As far as settings go- I do not recommend the attempt. Elementary OS is far more controlling than most distros and really likes to keep its layout and appearance locked down.

I was talking about Apps settings, like Browser history and cached data etc.
Thanks a lot for helping 
Which browser do you use?
Apps- eh... Well you may need to back up your ~/.config directory and move it over- but this can cause breakage and then teasing out which config caused it. In my case, I will back up on some of what is in config like GIMP resource files.
-Chuckle- yeah... there really is so much you can back up and restore elsewhere... Sometimes, just gotta crack your knuckles, open the terminal and Get To Installin'.

You could use sync function such as Firefox sync to restore your settings in the new installation.
