How do you find ubuntu's home directory on windows? I've tried searching through windows file explorer by typing ubuntu/home
nothing shows up. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks for all your help in advance.

The equivalent of Ubuntu's ~/
(a.k.a. /home/yourusername/
) in Windows 10 is C:\Users\yourusername\
.
The equivalent is C:\Users\
So for you, your home directory would be here:
C:\Users\shushimo
Windows can’t read Linux partitions. That is why you couldn't find the home directory of Ubuntu.
Instead, you could install third-party softwares to do that, like Ext2Fsd, DiskInternals Linux Reader and so on.

I believe I can safely assume that there is no /home directory on Windows. It probably depends on which Windows OS you are talking about. I think Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 has a /home directory, however. In case I am wrong (I probably am) I suggest waiting for another answer.
/home
is inside/
orroot
which in turn is in LocalAppData
