I have found that dragging and dropping the ROM onto the MAME executable bypasses this error.

As the error message is telling you, you do not have the correct atarisy1.zip (for use with mame 0.230). You need to find the right atarisy1.zip for mame 0.230.

And which I cannot find (I'm not asking for roms)

This only works because command-line launching of romsets will work if there is a simple hash change but the sizes and names need to be the same (this is a tool allowance for developers). All Atari System 1 games will require this change and if you intend to run any of them, the currently outlined romset will be required to launch within MAME's UI.

Yeah, I just wanna launch it through MAME's UI but can't due to this.

So far I have tried every thing and nothing worked.
