Hi,

you cold open a terminal, to run the following commands

  sudo apt update
  sudo apt full-upgrade
  sudo apt autoremove


I am not sure that 16.04 has the full featured apt command so may be better
to stick to apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade.

Colin


and post the commands + their output. Ensure that your MUA
doesn't wrap the lines.

This is not the procedure to fix issues, it's just a procedure to
upgrade and to tidy up, so it might report issues.

Regards,
Ralf
