I may not ultimately be the person to help you, but I will try teasing some information out of you, because at the moment, we have next to nothing.

1. Which Lubuntu - 20.04 or 22.04 or other?
2.

Tried other distros too , same issue

Which ones?

3. Is this your first use of a Linux OS, or if not, what is your experience?
4. Which version of unetbootin are you using?

If the Lubuntu is 22.04, unetbootin does not yet support that.

Is there Windows on this PC and if so, which version?

I was installing lubuntu 20.04. I tried other distros like puppy and xubuntu, same error.I am using the latest version of unetbootin. And my primary os is windows 10 build 212h

Try Rufus or Balena Etcher instead of Unetbootin and see how you go.

zstd compression is used to compress the kernel. Run Ubuntu's installation image from USB, and repair boot partition - using gnome-disks or fsck.

Think I'd download a fresh ISO and check the md5sum or 256sum to be sure it is correct, and do this --
