Basically I am a Linux lover but work on windows due to my professional requirements that’s why I look for the packages that gives the opportunity to use the Linux during work but does not harm the work efficiency and like to share with other Linux lovers. Using Linux on windows is not a new idea because a lot of packages are available on internet that provides you the access to the Linux but installing Linux on windows just like an application is worth reading and doing an experiment.

There are couple of more very interesting options given for this application, given as under;

No need to burn a CD. Just run the installer, enter a password for the new account, and click "Install", go grab a coffee, and when you are back, Ubuntu will be ready for you. Wubi keeps most of the files in one folder, and if you do not like it, you can simply uninstall it as any other application.

You keep Windows as it is, Wubi only adds an extra option to boot into Ubuntu. Wubi does not require you to modify the partitions of your PC, or to use a different boot loader, and does not install special drivers. It works just like any other application. Wubi is free of spyware and malware, and being open source, anyone can verify that.
Wubi and Ubuntu cost absolutely nothing, but yet provide a state of the art, fully functional, operating system that does not require any activation and does not impose any restriction on its use (free as in freedom).
