Installation Error
Am installing the ubuntu along with windows10 and I already separated the free space in windows machine and started ubuntu installation. All went success but installation type 'free space' main options are disabled even right click is not showing add option to separate the swap. System details: 750 gb HD. 6GB RAM.

I am not sure what the question is. I am assuming when you say "free space" you are talking about that partition that Ubuntus partitioner is marking "unusable", meaning, you can not use it. I have rarely seen that in my installations of linux. It is usally marked someting else. Why do you have so many primary ntfs partitions? I think the installer might think you are at the maximum number of ntfs partitions. I would use windows to combine some, then a gparted boot media to create a new partition for ubuntu. (or perhaps just use gparted to make a new partition, or see why that one is unusable.)

Basically, download, burn to media, boot, choose the disc, modify the partitions to your liking, hit apply, wait, click reboot twice, remove media. To be more specific read the docs
