After I managed to upgrade from 18.10 to 19.04, I got a new problem. After finishing the upgrade, I reboot my laptop but it gets stuck on the purple screen and I restart it again then I got this.

Error

PS: I run dual boot (Windows 10 and Ubuntu)

Any ideas to fix this problem?

Yes you can. Boot a live-session(from pendrive or DVD)

sudo fdisk --list

search for Type linux ignore swap if present.

Example from my system

/dev/sdb1           2048   62916607   62914560    30G 83 Linux
/dev/sdb2       62916608   71305215    8388608     4G 82 Linux Swap / Solaris

start file-manager in live-sesion and mount over that your filesystem.

Plugin an usb-harddrive and mount it too. With

findmnt

you can see there both filesystem is mounted. Another example from me

├─/media/alex/bionic-home             /dev/sdc5            ext4            rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime
└─/media/alex/bionic                  /dev/sdc1            ext4            rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime

That's my backup-harddrive.

sudo cp -a /full/path/to/your/home/on/disk  /full/path/to/usb-drive

another example; english is not my native speech.

sudo cp -a /home/alex /media/alex/bionic-home

Please adapt it to your situation.

from a live-session you need grandet rights, because normally the username from installed system is not the same as in a live-session.

I hope this is understandable for you.
