I am trying to install Ubuntu using Wubi (I previously had an install, something went wrong and I'm trying to install again). I get to the point where it is extracting and installing, then an error pops up (I've repeated this 3 times now).
What is wrong? I have tried to get to the error log, but it seems to have deleted before I can get to it.

U can instead burn image to USB drive using Unetbootin....
It maybe Wubi error or sumthing...but UNetBootIn is nice utility :) :)

Probably bug 862003. Can't say for sure with the info provided but if it happened right at the end, and it's regarding x:\\wubildr (where x is some drive letter that's a protected or readonly drive) then that's the problem. So you'd just reboot to complete the install.
You can use a USB to install Ubuntu direct to disk or try it in live mode; but not to install Wubi. Wubi is more for trying out Ubuntu and is safe and easy to uninstall.
