- How to Install Windows 10 in VirtualBox in Linux - It's FOSS- No-hassle way to install Windows 10 with VirtualBox | Computerworld
I saw that there are 2 computers already associated with my account. Names I do not recognize and they are different. I have a suspicion that each is associated with my two virtualbox installs. So can I even install win10 via iso on virtualbox according to the internet and a lot of articles, yes? If so, how do I get to recognize my machine? Absolutely nothing has changed with the hardware - same box.
Anything I can do here other than going back to clean install and dual boot to ubuntu if even possible now, or purchasing something I already own? This thread is locked.

Depending on how you got your license for Windows 10, you'll need either a character product key or a digital license to activate it.
Without one of these, you won't be able to activate your device. The product key or digital license can't be substituted for one another. I would suggest you to go through the article Activation in Windows 10 and see if it is helpful for you. For further information, please refer this article on Reactivating Windows 10 after a hardware change.
Was this reply helpful? Yes No. Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. I have a win10 digital license on my laptop and can successfully do a clean install of windows The problem only occurs when I install ubuntu and try to install win10 virtually - it doesn't see the license.
I tried a number of times and activation was always a problem. Here are step-by-step instructions about how to do it. VirtualBox runs on Windows machines, Macs, and Linux machines, so you'll be able to install Windows 10 in just about any platform. Get it from here , download it, and install it.
No special instructions needed. Head to this page to get it. When you go there, click "Get started," and follow the instructions and prompts until you finally get to the download page. Choose your language and whether you want to download the bit or bit version.
I downloaded the bit version, because I installed it on a bit machine. Some people have reported problems with installing the bit version with VirtualBox , but my installation went without a hitch. Write down where you downloaded the ISO file, because you'll need to know that later. Run VirtualBox and click the New icon on the upper-left side of the machine. From the screen that appears, type Windows 10 in the name field.
Then from the Version drop-down box, select Windows 8. Next you'll be prompted to select how much RAM you want to devote to your Windows 10 virtual machine. You'll be shown a recommended amount of RAM. You can change it if you want, but I've used VirtualBox for several years and have created many virtual machines, and I've found its recommendations to be on target.
So unless you know what you're doing and have a very good reason to change it, accept the recommendation. In order to install Windows 10, you'll have to create a virtual hard drive for installing it. So from the screen that appears after you've selected the amount of RAM, click "Create a virtual hard drive.
For the type of drive, you'll have a choice between one that is a fixed size and one that dynamically allocates space, that is, it grows larger if the operating system needs it. Your best bet is to choose a fixed size.
