Lost on how to install ubuntu
I am new to ubuntu and linux in general. I don't know any fancy terms like kernels and partitions. I will have to learn that on my own, but before that I need to install ubuntu on my pc. I downloaded and iso for ubuntu desktop on my pc, and then burned it to a ucsb creating an ubuntu key. Now I do not know what to do next. When I open the contents in my flasdrive, I click on VirtualBox folder, which leads me to a folder named Portable-VirtualBox, and 2 icons: Virtual Box and Virtualize_This_Key, but is says to "Exit Portable Virtual box and do not remove the key" when I click on them. I tried booting with my flashdrive. When I go to Bios and then to Boot tab, I select to boot from UEFI, but my computer just boots into BIOS screen again.
