With a virtual machine, you can run an operating system like an application inside your current operating system. VirtualBox is open-source virtualization software from Oracle for creating virtual machines.

What is VirtualBox and what are its advantages? In an earlier tutorial, I showed you how to install VMWare on Ubuntu, but in this one, we’ll be using Oracle VirtualBox to create virtual machines and installing Windows 10 on them. If, like me, you’re an infrequent user of Windows and don’t want to trouble yourself with dual booting Ubuntu and Windows 10, I suggest installing Windows 10 inside Linux by creating a virtual machine. It works well, except you have to switch between the operating systems by restarting them. One way to use the two systems together is to dual boot Windows and Linux.
