Ctrl+Alt+U Open an Ubuntu terminal
- Open the Microsoft Store App
- Search for "Ubuntu"
- Get "Ubuntu" (NOT the ones with version numbers!)
- Wait for the installation to finish
- Go through Ubuntu first time setup to create the standard UNIX username and password
Please reach out to me on GitHub if you have any issues that are not solved by the information provided below.
