You need a hypervisor, something to run the virtual machines. As stated VirtualBox is one free choice, another is VMware Workstation.

VirtualBox, tried it and it works great

If its Windows 10 Pro just install the hyperv role

i'd recommend hyperv over virtualbox. vb is easier to use, but hyperv is more powerful and in my experience, ive had less issues with hyperv than virtualbox.

 

See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/quick-start/enable-hyper-v

under 'Enable the Hyper-V role through Settings'

Depends what you wanna do with the Ubuntu server VM. If you just want to try things out with it. I would use personally Virtualbox or VMware workstation. Its easy to rollback, change or delete. But if want to really use it for something like a minecraft server or for hosting a website. Its better to do it in HyperV if it is a Windows 10 pro box. Because it's more stable just like @smokeweedeveryday said.
