I am fairly new to Ubuntu but I must say first of all... I LOVE IT! I am going through all of the installation and setup for it, but when I get to the installation type screen that is where my worry started. The screen looks as follows:

This computer currently has no detected operating systems. What would you like to do?

⚪Erase disk and install Ubuntu

Warning: This will delete all your programs, documents, photos, music and any other files in all operating systems

Will this delete everything in my host machine?

Thanks in advance.

PS: My apologies for the awful formatting, this is my first time posting here as im sure you can tell.

Unless you seriously misconfigured the VM, no, it will not. I believe most VM's offer a simpler route to just get set up with an OS image: you might want to look into that. In any case, VM's work to prevent even a malicious program from doing this, so the Ubuntu installer won't.
