Daul Boot or VMWARE?

Hello guys!! So I have a few Questions about linux and I found alot of confusing answers from internet searches about this topic, I'll be glad if someone with experience answers me here:) I use Windows 10 OS on my PC and I would like to use Kali Linux OS beside it, here's my Questions: 1- Should I do Daul Boot or use VMWARE and why? 2- What are the steps for daul booting if yes? 3- Which is better; to use both Operating systems on the same hard dive or on separate hard drives? 4- What is the required free space for linux? I'm not talking about the minimum but the recommended for future usage And finally, Thank you;)

You cannot install same OS on same Hard Drive You need to install Linux in another drive as Linux takes less space so you can have atleast 10 GB of Hard Drive. If you already have windows 10 then just install Linux in another drive. There are few steps which is available on the internet. When you restart system it will ask you choose OS Also this type of general questions are also available on the internet.

You can install linux on the same hard drive, done it before but you will need a virtual environment for that,

If you can't figure this out on yourself you shouldn't use Linux. Especially not Kali.
