I’m stuck on TAC 1
I having been replaying TAC 1 and just keep getting frustrated. New to guitar and my fingers struggle to reach certain strings. Any recommendations?

I’m on 30 days to play and feel some of that. Darn pinky finger!

Without keeping time go slow very slowly. See if you can slowly make to reach. Mess around with your hand position and see what different things allow you to do in the reaching department. Most of my initial trouble was trying to go too fast, too soon.

Not sure what TAC 1 is. Is it day 1 of the 30 Days to Play?
As a beginner your fingers aren’t going to be able to do certain shapes or have the necessary stretch. It takes months for some of the stretches and to get comfortable with some of the chord shapes.
Do the best you can and just keep trying and it will eventually come. @jumpinjeff tip was a good one. Try doing it slow, spend as much time as necessary getting your fingers where they need to be, then take your fingers off and repeat. It took me 4 months to get comfortable with the C chord shapes. About the same amount of time for the stretch needed for power chords. Be patient.
