It sounds like you want to install Ubuntu on a school chromebook.
You can't, unless you put it in dev mode first. Also, .exe's don't run on ChromeOS.
Instructions on dev mode and crouton can be found on chromium.org.

@tanksenpai This is a better thread: http://askubuntu.com/questions/355110/lenovo-x131e-chromebook-ubuntu-installation. By any chance, is this on a school chromebook? – negusp Oct 08 '16 at 21:51
