I've found I have issues with my repo's for disco anytime I restart my computer. If I go back into Software & Updates, the repo's I deselected are re-selected. Here is what I get when I try to install things:

Ign:1 http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable InRelease

E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/gezakovacs/ppa/ubuntu disco Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

What I have currently selected when I reboot is:

Canonical Partners (Source Code)

http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb stable
http://ppa.launchpad.net/gezakovacs/ppa/ubuntu disco

(NOT the Source Code version, I've noticed no matter which one I choose it still happens.) Changing server location also doesn't do anything.

    I opened http://ppa.launchpad.net/gezakovacs/ppa/ubuntu in a browser, and it doesn't support any release after bionic (18.04). Did you check the PPA supported your release before adding it? It doesn't so should be removed and a new source for whatever you want it for searched for. – guiverc May 21 '19 at 00:38
  • The problem is the PPA as correctly stated in the error message. It has no contents for 19.04, it goes up to 18.04 only. If you keep that selected of course the same error will keep showing. Probably there's no problem with the other ones you disabled. –  May 21 '19 at 00:39
  • @guiverc Dang it, no I assumed it was supported. How can I correct this? I was trying to install something similar to Rufus and UNetBootin was recommended – Leslie Lemon May 21 '19 at 00:42

    Possible duplicate of How can PPAs be removed? It's a good idea to check PPAs are still maintained, and support your release (for security reasons alone, they are 3rd party sources - so security is up to you). – guiverc May 21 '19 at 00:43
  • I've used neither program, I'm writing a thumb-drive now (what I assume you want it for), but just use dd Additional note: If you're new to GNU/Linux - avoid dd as mistakes are costly. I wiped a hdd a few months ago due to careless mistake. dd has no margin for error. – guiverc May 21 '19 at 00:45
  • @guiverc Thank you! I'm still really new to Linux. Could you dumb dd down for me? – Leslie Lemon May 21 '19 at 00:46

    In the main page, in this case https://launchpad.net/~gezakovacs/+archive/ubuntu/ppa - if you click on "technical details" you'll see a dropdown menu with all the releases that PPA supports. But you don't need Unetbootin. Your Ubuntu already has similar tool for the same purpose that generally works better. Of course there's also the command-line dd but I'm not even talking about that. –  May 21 '19 at 00:48

    @guiverc I was able to remove it using sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:gezakovacs/ppa Thank you!! – Leslie Lemon May 21 '19 at 00:48
  • @guiverc I am new to Linux and I try to avoid commands because I'm worried about messing something up. That's why I've been sticking to programs, haha. – Leslie Lemon May 21 '19 at 00:54
  • @LeslieLemon Commands are great if you know what are you doing and why. – Kulfy May 21 '19 at 18:56
