Choose the "Install Ubuntu alongside Windows" option.Select the rest of the desired install options and complete the installation.  When the process has finished you will have the options to continue test or to restart now.  Click the "Restart Now" option.  You will be asked to remove the USB drive and press enter. Now when your computer reboots you will have options to boot into Windows 10 or Ubuntu.
