Ubuntu Linux Live USB ⚡ 26.04 LTS Desktop 64-bit Bootable for PC Try or Install

⚡ UBUNTU LIVE USB — BOOTABLE LINUX DESKTOP FOR YOUR PC. TRY IT OR INSTALL IT. READY TO BOOT.

Plug the stick into a PC, restart, pick it from the boot menu, and you are using Ubuntu — no installation needed. Choose \"Try or Install Ubuntu\" at the menu: run the full desktop live (nothing on the PC changes), or install Ubuntu on the hard drive, alongside Windows or instead of it. The stick holds the unmodified Ubuntu Desktop 26.04.1 LTS image, written byte for byte exactly as published — the version with security updates until April 2031 — and the 24.04.5 LTS build for PCs with 4 GB of RAM is available on request.

🐧 FULL DESKTOP, READY TO GO
- Firefox web browser and Thunderbird email included
- LibreOffice Writer, Calc and Impress — opens and saves Word, Excel and PowerPoint files
- Video player, photo viewer and manager, music player, PDF viewer, calendar, text editor and torrent client included
- Thousands more free apps (VLC, GIMP, Blender, games and more) install from the App Center after setup — they are not preinstalled
- Multilingual installer and desktop; hardware drivers and firmware for most graphics and Wi-Fi included

🔁 TRY OR INSTALL — YOUR CHOICE
- Try: Ubuntu runs entirely from the stick. Nothing on the PC changes, and nothing you do is kept after you shut down
- Install: the standard Ubuntu installer puts Ubuntu on the disk, next to Windows (dual boot) or instead of it — back up your files first
- Boots in UEFI mode (most PCs since about 2012) and legacy BIOS mode; Secure Boot can stay on

📦 WHAT\'S INCLUDED
- 16 GB USB flash drive with the unmodified Ubuntu Desktop image written byte for byte (Ubuntu 26.04.1 LTS, 64-bit PC)
- Printed quick-start card with the boot-menu key for every major PC brand, the trademark notice and the GPL source offer
- Ubuntu 24.04.5 LTS for PCs with 4 GB of RAM available on request — leave a note when you order
- Email support for setup questions

⚠️ HARDWARE LIMITATIONS — PLEASE READ BEFORE BUYING
- 64-bit Intel or AMD PC required (amd64). Will not run on 32-bit PCs, ARM laptops, Chrome OS laptops, tablets or phones
- Memory: 6 GB of RAM or more for Ubuntu 26.04 (the default). PC has only 4 GB? Ask for the 24.04 version
- 25 GB of free disk space needed to install (trying it live needs no installation)
- Not for Macs with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer). Intel Macs often boot but are unsupported — this stick is sold for PCs
- Secure Boot works on most PCs. Some Windows 11 \"Secured-core\" PCs need \"Allow Microsoft 3rd Party UEFI CA\" turned on in the firmware (or Secure Boot off)
- Hardware support varies: some Wi-Fi adapters, fingerprint readers and very new graphics cards may need extra setup or may not work
- When Windows shows \"You need to format the disk\", always click Cancel — formatting would erase Ubuntu

✅ FREE AND OPEN SOURCE
- Ubuntu itself is free software. The price covers the 16 GB USB drive, its preparation and the printed card
- Ubuntu is a registered trademark of Canonical Ltd. This product is not made, endorsed or supported by Canonical. Ubuntu itself is free from ubuntu.com; you pay for the USB drive and its preparation

⚠️ Please note: booting from USB uses the boot menu — one key press as the PC starts (the card lists it for Dell, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, Acer, MSI and more). From Windows 10/11 you can also use Settings > System > Recovery > Advanced startup > Restart now > Use a device.
