If you want to run Ubuntu Linux on your system but you already have Windows 10 installed and don’t want to give it up completely, you have a couple of options. One option is to run Ubuntu inside of a virtual machine on Windows 10, and the other option is to create a dual boot system.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
On the \u201cSystem Configuration\u201d window, at the top, click the \u201cBoot\u201d tab. In the \u201cBoot\u201d tab, from the large white box at the top, select the OS that you want to make the default. Then, beneath the white box, click \u201cSet as Default.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
If have a Windows 11 install on your computer and you want to run Ubuntu Linux on the same computer, you’ll have to setup a dual boot \u2013 meaning you will be able to boot Windows 11 and Ubuntu Linux on the same machine \u2013 although one at a time.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
A computer that boots both Windows 10 and Linux can easily be the best of both worlds. Having easy access to either of the operating systems lets you enjoy the benefits of both. You can hone your Linux skills and enjoy the free software only available for Linux platforms.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

From within the \u201ctrial Ubuntu\u201d, use GParted to add the additional space, that you unallocated in Windows, to your Ubuntu partition. Identify the partition, right click, hit Resize\/Move, and drag the slider to take up the unallocated space. Then just hit the green checkmark to apply the operation.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Switching back and forth between operating systems is simple. Just reboot your computer and you’ll see a boot menu. Use the arrow keys and the Enter key to select either Windows or your Linux system.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Step 1: Type msconfig in the Start\/taskbar search field and then press the Enter key to open the System Configuration dialog. Step 2: Switch to the Boot tab. Select the operating system that you want to set as the default and then click Set as default button. Click the Apply button.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
You can use multiple copies of Windows 10 in what’s known as a Multi-Boot configuration. Often you’ll hear of this as “Dual-booting”, because most commonly only two different OSs are in question.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
In dual boot, you can choose which operating system to boot into. If you see the \u201cInstall Ubuntu alongside Windows Boot Manager\u201d, choose it. Restart after installation completes.
