What distro are you using? If you are using a debian(ubuntu, mint etc) distro try to this type in the console:
sudo apt-get uptdate
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get uptdate
edit: long time since i used debian, correct me if i’m wrong

** If you don’t know how to do this you press ALT+F2
, then you write terminal
