*What?!* OMG, no!

The whole point of Ventoy is that you can just copy a bunch of ISO
files onto the USB key, just like any other files, and then when you
boot from the key,  it magically gives you a menu allowing you to pick
which to boot.

Format your USB drive, reinstall Ventoy, then copy the entire ISO file
and your Xubuntu ISO onto it.

Mark, I think you may be still suffering from some post-COVID
impairment here, and I advise double-checking before trying stuff like
this, or just asking the list or something. If nothing else, it'll
save you time! Maybe it's Baader-Meinhof Syndrome but I've noticed a
lot of posts from you recently saying some form of "I tried this and
it doesn't work -- why not?"
