location and click on next
Step 8: Specify disk capacity. Here you can increase or decrease the

select the split virtual disk into multiple files option that means splitting the
disk makes it easier to move the virtual machine to another computer but may
reduce performance with very large disks. Then click on Next.

Customize the hardware information, select memory and you can increase the
memory size that is RAM size depending on your computer. Select the
Processors, enter the number of processors cores as maximum as possible
depending on your computer processor and then click on close. Now click on
finish to create virtual machine and start installing ubuntu.
Step 10: Ubuntu is loading on ISO file. It will take time for installation
configuration. Ubuntu has been successfully installed in VMWare. Now open
VMware and click on ubuntu-64 which appears on the left panel. (If not directly
opened). Select the language and click on next. Select the Normal or Minimal
installation based on your requirements.
The difference between the two options is the installation of basic tools and
more advanced applications only.
Step 11: To do a clean install, select Erase disk and install Ubuntu and click
Install Now and click Continue to confirm the changes to be made on the disk.
After marking the location, you live in on the map, click Continue. Type your
username for your Ubuntu virtual system and continue after creating a strong
root password. Wait while Ubuntu is installed on the virtual computer you
created. At this stage, some files will be downloaded and installed
automatically from the Internet. After the installation wizard has copied the
Ubuntu system files and installed the necessary software, restart your system.
Step 12: Type the root password you created to log in, and press Enter. After
logging in, the system configuration wizard will appear. If you want to log in to
Google, Microsoft, or other services in Ubuntu, you can do so by typing your
personal information in the Online Accounts window. If you prefer to configure
your account later, click the Skip button.
Finally, Ubuntu will be installed on windows using VMWare.
