So, Wubi + Windows 8 + UEFI = Offtopic. Noted. Now, I don't see what of the proforma reasons apply. Do we need something like: > Wubi is not supported in Windows 8 installations using UEFI nor versions newer than 12.04 LTS. This is by-design. If you like to [install Ubuntu in a system with Windows 8](https://askubuntu.com/q/221835/169736) or transform your current [Wubi installation into a full installation](https://askubuntu.com/q/635/169736). For more information see [here](https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2013-April/036993.html). Any other idea?
