You're having trouble with Kali Linux after a few failed USB transfers. It sounds like you need to switch your USB drive from CD-ROM to DVD-ROM, which can be tricky. Let me know if you'd like step-by-step guidance!

It can't be used because the MBR only supports four partitions (extended ones exist). Remove your D drive and the 450MB recovery partition, then resize your C drive.

Tries to find a way to remove the 450mb partition but gets stuck. When prompted, it only shows "help!" instead of options.

DiskPart is your ally. The Disk Management window isn't great.

Sure, I can help you with that while keeping your files safe. What do you need assistance with?

Have a backup ready. Start by deleting the specified partitions in your Windows setup. Next, expand the C partition and proceed to install Kali on a virtual machine using Hyper-V, which comes bundled with Windows. You can also run Kali directly inside a VM.

Just remove that folder right away. I’m not sure if you have a backup.

Need a safety net. Just set up a VM, why would you keep a D partition?

It seems you're unsure about the correct VM option. Ubuntu is a common choice, but you might also consider other options depending on your needs. What do you mean by "this"?

VirtualBox from Oracle is a well-known virtual machine solution, or you might prefer hyperV. Do you require Windows on this storage? Which Windows version are you using? Why do you have multiple partitions? Are all four needed? You’re asking about Ubuntu—do you want Kali or standard Ubuntu? I typically use Kali as a live CD to test software and later install it on my Debian/Ubuntu system. Their repositories are often unreliable, making them unsuitable for everyday use.
