I returned in another 10 or 15 minutes, only to see the same screen that I had seen before (and why I didn’t take a screenshot of it, is beyond my ken at the moment). After perhaps 15 or 20 minutes, I returned to see a notice from Windows that it had encountered trouble finishing the installation, but that it though downloading an updated file should solve the issue, and so I told it to proceed. Then Windows stated it had work to do, so I sat there for a bit, then went off to do other things while checking back periodically. Eventually, I was asked for the installation language, keyboard type, etc. The process seemed a bit slow, but given that it was being installed as a virtual machine, I didn’t give it much thought. The installation of Windows 10 Pro started just as described. In setting up the installation, I allocated 10 GB of RAM (32 GB RAM in total) from my system and created a 100 GB drive for the virtual machine on a separate partition of the drive where VirtualBox was installed. Then, following Abhishek’s directions, I proceeded to install Windows 10 Pro 64 bit from the ISO downloaded from Microsoft. deb installer and the corresponding extension pack from Oracle, and installed them both with very little fuss. My computer is running Linux Mint 21.1 which, of course, is built on Ubuntu 22.04.
Here is some background that is relevant. I was using Abhishek’s tutorial for installing Windows 10 as a virtual machine under VirtualBox. Please forgive me if my post is in the wrong location!
