You can get a new drive, install Windows to it and then add Ubuntu to it off the existing drive.

Use a Virtual Machine for Windows 10 instead of dual-booting. If you reject reformat-related options, then that's your only choice remaining.

If UEFI, just let Windows install to unallocated space. It wants lots of partitions and should install its boot loader files into an existing ESP - efi system partition. Be sure to have good backups. docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/…

We usually do the inverse, installed Ten and then Ubuntu with Grub. On Ryzen 2700U, Ubuntu 19.04 takes 2.5 minutes to install and Ten, less then 6 minutes.

You should have all that backed up anyway. User settings are all in /home, if system settings those will be in /etc. And you should be backing up list of installed apps if more than a very few. askubuntu.com/questions/2596/comparison-of-backup-tools

Then get an SSD caddy for 20$ and clean install Ten via its USB wire. No need to play with Grub.
