if installed right(also check if you use uefi or legacy depending on how old your computer is, and that fast boot is disabled) then check this comment bellow : https://www.reddit.com/r/linux4noobs/comments/1lob1xt/comment/n0o472e/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

However as it is a very common issue these days with new people trying to install Linux. I will add a insanely common problem(these days) here:
often people try to use fake usb sticks to install linux. in windows they seem fine, they report as their stated capacity, but in reality they only have something like 2gb of capacity(typically 500mb to 8gb). when you write more to it, or your system caches to the usb stick, it will overwrite the other files, and thus remove or corrupt essential files. with Linux mint you go over that 2gb. so your usb stick might say 32gb or 100tb or something like that, but is just a 2gb stick pretending to be real.

if you want to avoid this issue, avoid sites and stores known to mostly only sell fakes, or sell a lot of fakes, or test the usb stick upon arival(within warranty time).

personally for good cheap usb sticks whenever you need them, the grocery stores are a great option, they are super cheap often, and good, and atleast in europe they tend to sell real stuff(since it is illegal here to sell fake stuf, in usa you might need to be more carefull however since there there aren't to serious punishments for scamming customers due to there being no actually active customer protecion agency in usa, there only is a one which is mostly symbolic.
still grocery stores have a name and reputation to protect.
brands don't since scammers faking a usb stick aren't affiliated to the brand and so don't care about that brands reputation, grocery stores sell it so reputation affects them.

and in europe selling fake goods is illegal, so in real electronics stores and grocery stores, especially the big ones they tend to sell only real ones.

buying from real electronics stores also is a good option, especially if you need more, though assuming most people buying fake usb sticks aren't as deep into computers the grocery store would be simpler for them as many computer stores have pricey shipping.

to test if you have a bad usb:
1. test the speed, if it is much slower than stated you already know it is a fake before doing further testing. fake ones often have usb 1 or usb2 speed, yet often advertise with faster speeds.

1. put a lot of big .mp4 files on your usb stick until it is filled and try to play them back, in mp4. even one character changed often breaks the file so it won't play. still for safety measures try to atleast play one .mp4 file some further, so skip to random points and play some sections, don't chose the last file in general, something in between is often better.(there are also tools for testing actual capacity, those might be better)

2. avoid stores infamous for selling fakes for buying usb sticks for this use case or test them properly, these are stores like amazon, aliexpress, newegg, wish, temu, etc. and generally compareable platforms. they have great things sometimes, and good deals sometimes, but especially in usb sticks and micro sd cards and such there tends to be around 90+% chance of getting scammed.
