I'm planning on dual-booting Windows 10 and Ubuntu on a new computer I'm buying for college, since my college requires Windows. I'd like to encrypt my installation during setup for security, but since Windows will also be on the same hard drive, I'd like to know whether encrypting Ubuntu will damage the WIndows partition. In other words, would the encrypt option only encrypt the Ubuntu partiton or would it encrypt the entire hard drive and cause Windows to stop working?
