@karel It doesn't appear as if the user is trying to find the Alongside option. He doesn't appear to be having problems with his installation. He's just trying to be sure to identify where is Windows is installed so that he doesn't make a mistake and delete the wrong partition.

Either that or else the "Install alongside" option in the "Installation type" screen of the Ubuntu installer is missing, but the "Erase Windows and install Ubuntu" and the "Something else" options are not missing. Clearly he does not want to choose the "Erase Windows and install Ubuntu" option or else that will overwrite Windows.

He wants to overwrite hisold corruptedUbuntu. He has bothext4andswappartitions (where his old corrupted Ubuntu is installed). Of course, he also has his Windows on his computer, which he doesn't want to make a mistake and format. His confusion is the meaning ofPartition #9 - ext4andPartition #10 - swap.

The system is indicating that it will remove partitions /dev/sda9, which is an ext4 partition and /dev/sda10, which is a swap partition.
Neither of those is a Windows Partitions.
You can run this command to see which partition has your Windows.
$ sudo fdisk -l
Windows is an ntfs partition.
