      No reason to use this now that Ubuntu cinnamon exists. It's in the same category as KDE Neon now

    Install Windows first (if you haven't already) and then set up dual-boot on Ubuntu live and install: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot

        No need, download an ISO from Microsoft's website, write it to a USB or DVD, then use that. I recommend Windows 10 IoT LTSC, which you can get from archive.org. When you get Windows 10 IoT LTSC, you'll need to activate it with an activator, which you'll get off of GitHub.

      Unless you play garbage games with Easy Anti-Cheat there is no reason to keep windows for gaming.
