There are many blog posts on the use of virtual machines. Virtual Machine refers to a complete computer system with complete hardware system functions simulated by software and running in a completely isolated environment. If you use U disk to start the system, pay attention (the difference between uefi and legacy).
It supports windows, Mac OS, Linux and other systems. In Ubuntu, you are using windows programs or other versions of Linux. Virtual machines are the best choice. Of course, you can use windows and wine packages.
Popular virtual machine software includes VMware, Virtual Box and Virtual PC.

VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise and home use. VirtualBox is not only a highly functional high-performance product for enterprise customers, but also a proprietary open source software solution provided free of charge under the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2. Please refer to "About VirtualBox" for an introduction.
Currently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, Macintosh and Solaris hosts, and supports a large number of guest operating systems, including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x and 4.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2 and OpenBSD.
VirtualBox is actively developing frequent versions, and has a growing list of features, supported guest operating systems, and running platforms. VirtualBox is a community effort supported by dedicated companies: everyone is encouraged to contribute, and Oracle ensures that products always meet professional quality standards.
