Installing Windows 7 through Virtual machine to run within Ubuntu system is completely possible, I can't see a reason why it wouldn't.
If you unable to do so, it's either a problem with Ubuntu side or VM program side.
Windows 7 installation screen on Virtualbox, running from 18.04 64Bit
- Get a Windows 7
.isofile. - Run through the setup installation of new VMs, in Virtualbox I had to set.
- Virtual Machine names
- Amount of RAM
- (Virtual) Hard Disk space
- Load the
.isoto your newly created VM. - You're all set.

Actually I've found the windows .iso, thank you for the link pretty simple I guess but you clearly detailed steps a easy thing for me to do myself. Thank you anyway.
