    So, I do that after I install Windows? :S Won't Ubuntu be overwritten by then?

    1. make your ubuntu partition smaller using gparted... you will have to boot from disk to do so.
    2. install Windows on the unpartitioned space you just created.
    3. use the website finish making Ubuntu dual boot.

    ( make sure you have everything you need before you start )
    Give yourself 6 months and you will love Ubuntu too!

    Can I run it using a USB instead of a disk?

    Re: Can anyone help me dualboot Windows after Ubuntu?

    To create the install USB you can use unetbootin -- but I've had better experiences using the Universal USB Installer that you can download from PendriveLinux.com.
    Ubuntu 20.04, Mint 19.10; MS Win10 Pro.
    Will not respond to PM requests for support -- use the forums.
