Can't boot from disk

Question

I've just bought a stick to download the latest version of Ubuntu Desktop. I downloaded the program from Ubuntu and it is now on the stick. I downloaded it and I see both the file and the ISO file. I open the file folder and all files are listed include "Install" I click on that file and a mt86plus comes up....

I am then asked how do you want to open this file, I tried opening it with 7-Zip and nothing...

Any suggestions?

What do you mean by saying "I see both the file and the ISO file"? You must download the relevant ISO file and make a bootable disk based on it. Have a look on documentation on USB installation — Mostafa Ahangarha, May 21 '16 at 12:59

So i had problem booting ubuntu from USB Stick(Flash Drive) too.

Be sure your flash drive is bootable, you can see how to make a bootable flash drive here.
If you still can't boot from flash drive you must do a bootalbe DVD. You can see here how to do.
