I'm following a tutorial on how to install ubuntu onto my computer. I want to replace Windows completely. The tutorial says: "Step 2: Locate the .iso file and burn it to your disk" ... GREAT. There's hundreds or thousands of files in the download and I can't find ANY of them that are a .iso file so I don't know what to put onto the disk. Can anyone help?

Sorry. I figured out what I was doing wrong.
1) I didn't understand that the entire folder was to be treated as one file.
2) I wasn't burning the iso file to the disk properly, I didn't realize that I needed to download a program so that I could burn to the disk as an image.
3) Once I got the disk made properly, everything went smoothly from there. Sorry for wasting everyone's time, please disregard this question. Thank you to everyone who responded.

Myself, I'd suggest just using a search engine (eg. https://eu.startpage.com/) and searching with a site:*.ubuntu.com so the results are limited to official sites.. What I listed are just some from the first page of such a search
