What is on the usb? If nothing on it, what was on it? I'd start by rewriting the partition table, don't know if you know how to do that but it's fairly simple with GParted. Obviously this will destroy all data on the usb but that would happen anyway when you write Ubuntu to the usb.

Unless formatting a cruzer stick (whatever that is)

Sandisk Cruzer.

No, it definitely shouldn't. You need some tool to extract and write the ISO (AKA "burn") onto the USB stick in order to have a bootable drive.

Thank you. I will google the procedure.

Ubuntu Disco Dingo reached End of Life in January 2020. You should install a current version.

I am attempting to do just that.
