I downloaded wubi and ran it, but it gets stuck on
"Downloading ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent". Nothing is actually being downloaded as can be seen from the connection status dialog. Have a VPN internet connection.
Thanks for any help

Hi and welcome to the forums :-)

You might be quicker just to download the wubi.exe and Desktop ISO for the same version.

Then place them in the same folder, for example, on the desktop, and run the executable.

Versions here:



For 10.04 use http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/
For 10.10 use http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/
For 11.04 use http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/
