I am attempting to install Ubuntu, and I am getting a serial number prompt.
I don't understand, if Ubuntu is free, why do I need to enter a serial number? How do I obtain one?

14I never encountered this before. Ubuntu is free. How did you install? Where did you get your installation medium from?– PerlDuckNov 30, 2018 at 11:27

5You're using an invalid, malicious installer. DO NOT continue to use it. Ubuntu is free and has NO serial codes.– Thomas Ward ♦Nov 30, 2018 at 21:24

Actually, I have never seen such before. Ubuntu Operating System is 100% free.
I think this installer you're using is probably not Ubuntu OS or at least is a customized version made by someone else.
To cut the long story short, I will recommend you download Ubuntu form here and install.
