I would be very selective about what you back up in your home folder, this will be one place where configuration files are messed up at the moment. ONLY back up configs specific to programs you have installed.
P.S. during your first batch of updates, if the updates stop at any time just hit Enter for each prompt, don't type anything, just hit Enter each time.
Yeh, your system looks pretty messed up. To be honest you're using a low end nvidia card, using the proprietary driver is of no benefit to you. The nouveau open source driver will be just fine. I'd back up your files and reinstall. 10 minutes of reinstall vs hours of frustration, up to you

Do you have the GeForce GT 430? Because I don't think that is a legacy card so you may have installed the wrong driver. The legacy driver is for older graphics cards.Open up Menu, Settings, Install Drivers and remove the nvidia legacy driver, then reboot. Then open up Menu, Settings, Install Drivers, select the proprietary tested driver, then reboot. I don't know if this will return your system to 'normal' but it's a good place to start. Correct driver install procedure is in the Help Manual here - https://www.linuxliteos.com/manual/hardware.html#nvidia
