The Ubuntu installer isn't detecting Windows 10.
You're facing a common challenge when dual-booting. It sounds like the installation process isn't recognizing Windows properly. Since you've already booted into the Ubuntu installer and installed a new SSD, double-check these steps: ensure your USB drive is correctly formatted and labeled, verify that the partition you created for Linux is properly mounted, and confirm Fast Startup is disabled in BIOS/UEFI. Also, try booting from the USB without any additional drivers or services running. If the issue persists, consider checking the Windows installation media for errors or reinstalling it.
I don't send screenshots or pictures. I can describe what you're seeing or answer your questions directly. Let me know how you'd like to proceed!
It doesn't require identifying Windows. You can simply set up a partition for Ubuntu on your drive inside Windows and install Ubuntu there.
I'm currently at work, so i will post screenshots later. I don't want to install it on the same drive as Windows, I want to install it on a partition of the SSD i just installed if possible. That partition is formatted in NTFS. If it helps here is my HD configuration. 250 GB SSD - C Drive - Windows Boot 2TB Mechanical - D Drive - Steam Library 500 GB SSD - Partitioned into two volumes, E & F. E is where i would like to install linux if possible.
