I selected the option of running Ubuntu 16.04 alongside Windows 10. But the problem I am facing right now is that I am unable to use Windows. When I start my PC there is no option of using Windows 10.

I installed Ubuntu yesterday alongside Windows 7 and whenever I start my computer I don't have the option to boot Windows. When the computer starts it goes straight to Ubuntu without giving me an OS selection menu. When it goes to Ubuntu it gives me Ubuntu repair options and Ubuntu normal start option. I still have all of the Windows 7 files on my hard drive, but Windows 7 has no way to boot.

I'm very new to Ubuntu, and have come to this point that I can't boot back to my Windows Vista anymore.  I thought that I would get some kind of dual boot in the beginning when booting my computer, but this doesn't seem too happen and I don't have the slightest idea on how to fix this. I was looking for help here at askubuntu, but I couldn't seem to find anything. I'm too new with this software.  I'll need hints and tips on how to fix this  Thanks for your time folks!

I am just about to install Ubuntu alongside Windows, just need to make sure I know how to remove it later.  I know from past the major problem was when I removed Ubuntu, I either still got into the GRUB booting menu, or I couldn't boot at all, and had to format HDD and start over. Now I found an article practically saying the Windows loader should be back upon deleting Linux partition, so I want to make sure:  If I have Windows and Ubuntu dualboot, and I want to get back to Windows booting quickly itself without choosing from any booting menu, is it enough to just delete the Ubuntu partition? Will the Windows loader override GRUB?  Thanks!

I am dual booting Windows 10 and Ubuntu 18.04. How to tell grub not to show the boot menu and boot directly to Windows 10 by default? What should I do if I want to boot to Ubuntu 18.04 instead of the default Windows 10?

I purchased a PC six months ago for work related tasks. I do 95% of my work on Ubuntu (web development). Now, I want to install Windows on another partition to play a few games on my relax time. Which steps should I follow? Any suggestions? Every guide I found suggest to install Windows and, after that, Ubuntu. Being this my main development machine, I cannot afford the risk of wiping everything.

I recently stumbled over the Ubuntu for Tablets video, where Mark Shuttleworth presents how Ubuntu is going to look on tablets.  However, he said one thing that struck me at: . He said that Ubuntu could run "all Windows apps".  How does this work? Was he talking about Wine (which definitely can't run every Windows program) or did he mean something else?

I have a laptop, and I'm going to install Ubuntu (I have experience, and I have  successfully installed , Ubuntu, , , , , , etc.), but installing  (Utopic Unicorn) alongside , Ubuntu can't detect Windows.  It shows me like there's no OS, but I have Windows&nbsp;10.  I have two primary partitions by the way if I manually install. If the Ubuntu installer can't detect Windows&nbsp;10, will it be detected at ?

I installed windows 10 on my laptop in UEFI mode with HDD GPT disk format, then I installed Ubuntu 16.04LTS on another partition. So I have Ubuntu dualboot with Windows 10 now.  I also installed rEFInd (it's like GUI for you to choose between different OSs) because I don't wanna use Grub2 as the default bootloader. Now I want to have Windows 7 too, but when I boot from the USB stick, an error screen showed up saying something like  the windows boot manager is having problems due to a recent hardware change   My system is still working fine so I don't know if the problem came from my system or if the setup I want is impossible.

I want to install a new Ubuntu on a drive where a previous Ubuntu system is already installed beside Windows7.  The first option says that only Ubuntu will be replaced.   The second says that all will be erased.  I only want Ubuntu replaced with the  new one while keeping Windows7 untouched.  Is the first option (“Erase Ubuntu16.10 and reinstall”) the good one in this case?

I need to install Ubuntu instead of Windows 7. Can you tell me the steps to do it? I don't want to install Ubuntu alongside Windows. Any precautions needed before installing Ubuntu? How do I install Ubuntu 11.10 without losing the current data in my laptop?

I have a Windows 8 system and was about to install Ubuntu 14.04 in dual boot mode, when I heard about Windows 10 releasing. Now that the Windows 10 has rolled out, I would like to know whether doing the same steps as for Windows 8 would install it. I would wait until somebody else has tried it out and posted it on the internet, but I'm somewhat out of time to wait. Will it be risky trying it out so soon, or does anyone know about what would work?

Having some issues installing Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS 64bit next to Windows 10.  This is what I did:  1) Created a bootable usb with ubuntu on it using Universal-USB-Installer-1.9.6.3  2) Changed the boot mode  3) Boot from USB - It showed the option to test drive or install - I chose install  4) Choose Language  5) Setup Wireless - I didn't choose anything here  6) Then it showed me the preparing to install  7) After that a message popped up saying:      Unmount partitions that are in use The installer has detected that the following discs have mounted partitions /dev/scd Do you want the   installer to try and unmount these partitions before continuing? If   you leave them mounted, you will not be able to create, delete, resize   partitions on these discs, but you may be able to install on an   existing partition there.   So obviously I said yes.  8) Installation type - I chose something else - This looked nothing like the screen shots I saw on the installation guide.    9) Then it only gave me the option to choose my bootable usb for the installation. With a bunch of options to choose, so I got scared and quit.     Can any one please help?  Keep in my mind I do not know a lot, so please dumb it down. Why can't I choose to run it along side Windows 10? Why doesn't the installation pick up my hard drives?  If you need any other info, please ask. But I think I put everything in here.

I have a 64-bit machine that has Windows 7 32-bit and Ubuntu 32-bit installed as a dual boot setup. Can I run 64-bit software on top of these 32-bit OSes, or are they a "bottleneck" limiting the true capability of the underlying hardware?

I sometimes need Windows for some school projects. So I was thinking is there anyway to have both Windows and Ubuntu installed but automatically boot in Ubuntu but if i pressed F12 or just something when booting like when i'm going into the bios then i could choose between Windows and Ubuntu ?  EDIT: i installed windows now. And i wanna know how i wont see the grub loader when i boot and it just automatically boots into Ubuntu. And if i press and hold "Shift" i will see the grub loader and will be able to choose Windows
