So like I was trying to install Davinci resolve (an editing program) and while doing so it basically said “removing” followed by that appears to be everything installed on my computer

So I nope right out of there and I notice a bunch of important things are missing ex: the terminal, file manager, etc

So I just decided Maybe if I reboot everything will be a ok

And now on this screen and it won’t even let me enter my logic

This was the latest update of Kubuntu And idk what I did wrong or how I got here

I’ve only been using Kubuntu for probably about 4 months ish

Edit: please help

Edit 2: I got it working by reinstalling Kubuntu as suggested, Thank you for the help :>

    It’s really late for me right now but I’ll talk so my brother tomorrow about borrowing an extra hard drive and attempting this then

      I fixed it It’s finally working It took me longer then I’m willing to admit but There’s no reinstall button in the installer

      But to do it is to select manual partition and simply set the original partition as /

      Amazingly everything is exactly how I left it I expected to have to reconfigure my settings n such but it managed to retain my previous configurations

        It’s pretty normal to keep the configurations. An inplace reinstall will just put the system files back that got removed, then a reboot will bring them up with the configuration files left from before the reinstall as long as they were put in the right place for user-configured files.
