I'm not the best with Linux—I even accidentally deleted all my operating systems once! I bought this USB drive that has 51 preinstalled Linux distros because my dad thought it was a good idea. I was running CachyOS for a bit, but then wanted to switch to Fedora. I ran into an error and decided to restart my PC. Now I can't get past the boot menu; every time I select an operating system, it just takes me back to the menu. I've already turned off secure boot. Any ideas on what to do?

Always specify your distro and some hardware details when asking for help! It’ll make it easier for others to assist you. Also, it sounds like you might want to check the partition layout on your USB. What's the size of the USB? Do you know its layout or what each partition contains?
Given that your USB is 128 GB and has a menu for selecting distros, it might be worth looking into the grub settings or any errors that arise when you try to boot. Sometimes, these multi-distro USB drives can get really tricky. It could be a simple configuration issue.
Buying a USB with free operating systems is a bit risky, especially if you can't verify where they came from. If you're stuck in the boot menu, it may mean there's an issue with the USB itself or the way the distros are set up. I'd recommend checking if the USB is still functioning properly before attempting to boot again.
