In this article we will guide you through the step-by-step process of not only installing VirtualBox on your Ubuntu 22.04 system, but also constructing a new virtual machine within VirtualBox. Whether you&#8217;re a beginner or an experienced user this tutorial will equip you with the necessary knowledge to set up and configure Windows 10 within a virtualized environment. This will enable you to seamlessly run Windows applications on your Ubuntu system. So, let&#8217;s dive in and explore the exciting world of virtualization with VirtualBox!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Update and Upgrade Ubuntu 22.04<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"876\" height=\"659\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1-update-and-upgrade.jpg\" alt=\"update and upgrade ubuntu\" class=\"wp-image-1381\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1-update-and-upgrade.jpg 876w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1-update-and-upgrade-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/1-update-and-upgrade-768x578.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 876px) 100vw, 876px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step is to update and upgrade Ubuntu 22.04. You can do so using the apt command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><code>sudo apt update &amp;&amp; sudo apt upgrade<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Install VirtualBox<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"881\" height=\"661\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-install-vb.jpg\" alt=\"install virtualbox\" class=\"wp-image-1382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-install-vb.jpg 881w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-install-vb-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2-install-vb-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 881px) 100vw, 881px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next you will need to install the VirtualBox package as well as the VirtualBox DKMS package. You can install them both with the following command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><code>sudo apt install virtualbox virtualbox-dkms<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Install VirtualBox Extension Pack (optional)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"879\" height=\"662\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/3-install-vb-extension-pack.jpg\" alt=\"install virtualbox extensions\" class=\"wp-image-1383\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/3-install-vb-extension-pack.jpg 879w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/3-install-vb-extension-pack-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/3-install-vb-extension-pack-768x578.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 879px) 100vw, 879px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After installing the two packages you can install the VirtualBox extension pack. This gives you features such as shared clip board, and shared folders within your virtual machine. This step is optional but it is highly recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><code>sudo apt install virtualbox-ext-pack<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Add Your User to the User Group<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"876\" height=\"294\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/7-add-user-to-group.jpg\" alt=\"add user to virtualbox group\" class=\"wp-image-1384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/7-add-user-to-group.jpg 876w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/7-add-user-to-group-300x101.jpg 300w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/7-add-user-to-group-768x258.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 876px) 100vw, 876px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The final step of the installation process is to add your user account the the vboxusers group. Use the usermod command below to complete this operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><code>sudo usermod -a -G vboxusers $USER<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Download Windows 10 ISO<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"805\" height=\"472\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/download-win-10-iso.jpg\" alt=\"Download Windows 10\" class=\"wp-image-1411\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/download-win-10-iso.jpg 805w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/download-win-10-iso-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/download-win-10-iso-768x450.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 805px) 100vw, 805px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that VirtualBox is installed we can download our ISO that we will use for the virtual machine. In this example I will be using the Windows 10 (64 Bit) installation ISO file. However the Windows 11 process would be virtually the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/software-download\/windows10\">Download Windows 10 (ISO File)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create a New Virtual Machine with VirtualBox<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"784\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/8-launch-virtualbox-and-hit-new-1024x784.jpg\" alt=\"create new vm with virtualbox\" class=\"wp-image-1385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/8-launch-virtualbox-and-hit-new-1024x784.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/8-launch-virtualbox-and-hit-new-300x230.jpg 300w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/8-launch-virtualbox-and-hit-new-768x588.jpg 768w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/8-launch-virtualbox-and-hit-new.jpg 1276w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The next step is to open VirtualBox and create a new virtual machine. Simply open the application and click on the &#8220;New&#8221; button as shown in the screenshot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Set the Virtual Machines Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"651\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/9-fill-out-basic-vm-info-1024x651.jpg\" alt=\"fill out virtualbox config\" class=\"wp-image-1386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/9-fill-out-basic-vm-info-1024x651.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/9-fill-out-basic-vm-info-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/9-fill-out-basic-vm-info-768x488.jpg 768w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/9-fill-out-basic-vm-info.jpg 1085w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You will then be asked to choose a name for the virtual machine. Then you will need to select the amount of memory you want available to the virtual machine. Finally select &#8220;Create a virtual hard disk now&#8221; then press the &#8220;Create&#8221; button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create a Virtual Hard Disk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1012\" height=\"638\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/10-create-virtual-hdd.jpg\" alt=\"create the virtual hard drive\" class=\"wp-image-1387\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/10-create-virtual-hdd.jpg 1012w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/10-create-virtual-hdd-300x189.jpg 300w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/10-create-virtual-hdd-768x484.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1012px) 100vw, 1012px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the virtual hard disk creation wizard you will be asked to choose a location, as well as choose the disks size. After you have made your selections click on &#8220;Create&#8221; to finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Power on the Windows 10 Virtual Machine<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"786\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/11-start-the-vm-1024x786.jpg\" alt=\"start the virtual machine\" class=\"wp-image-1388\" srcset=\"https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/11-start-the-vm-1024x786.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/11-start-the-vm-300x230.jpg 300w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/11-start-the-vm-768x589.jpg 768w, https:\/\/formatswap.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/11-start-the-vm.jpg 1276w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After creating the new virtual machine you will be greeted with this screen showing the Windows 10 VM.
