    So basically, I fucked up.

    I followed the screenshots and saved the ISO to my $HOME on my Manjaro partition (the one that I got confused on and mounted to my $HOME). Then, I restarted my computer and the Clonezilla prompt appeared. I attempted to click on the default (the first option) and thought it would be smooth sailing from there, but then I received an error error: symbol not found 'grub_efi_secure_boot'. At that point, I didn't think much of it, so I decided to shut down my computer, eject the USB drive with what I thought hosted Clonezilla Live, and reboot to GRUB -> Manjaro to do a bit of Googling. To my horror and dismay, Clonezilla Live was still there, haunting me like an apparation out of hell.

    So, I quickly realized my huge mistake, and after an hour of fruitlessly Googling on my phone, I decided to try switching the Boot Order of my Manjaro partition and my Windows partition. Fortunately, I am sending this query for help via the same computer, but through my Windows partition.

    So, now that I got my venting out of the way, I just have a simple question:
    Is there any way to access my Manjaro partition in order to delete the Clonezilla ISO? Or, do I have to suck it up and reset my BIOS to default settings, which will cause me to lose everything?

    Thanks in advance to whoever has an answer.

    Not sure if your Manjaro partition is overwritten or not. However, you definitely can use a GNU/Linux Live CD to boot that machine, then mount the partiton, remove the unnecessary files you want.
