OK, it works!!!
Instead of using a Ventoy live usb, I used an BelenaEtcher live sub (from jlb, zorinos.fr ). And it's ok, I have une access to my files on the PC
I can open a terminal in my PC but with the live usb account :).
Right now, I am saving my data !

First save your datas...then we can look how full your disk is and edit /etc/default/grub.

Hello, thank you for your time and interest
Now it works, but I think I have an issue.
I have transferred all my personal data (Documents, video...) on my External drive.
I note that the system takes now... 230 GB out of 250 GB !!! Is it normal?
I have had some troubles with recent updates.
I wonder if this update has duplicated some system data!
Hi, thank you for Zorin OS
With the Zorin OS 17.3 Pro update
I have got a first message about a "partial update".
The system propose me to finish this update later, with an upcoming update.
From this update,
I have this message of update failing:
Detailed errors from the package manager follow:
failed to build result for 362301da643102b9f38477387e2193e57abaa590

Do I have to run again this update ?
Note: except this message, Zorin works perfectly.
Thank you for your feedback.
…
I am considering to reinstall my system :).
Have a nice day.
José, France

Time Shift is the source of all this problem
Timeshift has run a backup on my PC...
and has taken 111 GB of space !!!
And that as blocked my PC!!!

You can delete all old timeshift snapshots and only keep one or two. Also change the settings that not so many snapshots are kept and perhaps not so often are taken. Perhaps you can limit the space for snapshots, but I am not sure. Best would be to save snapshots on a separate partition or even better on an external device.

Everything is ok, except... Thunderbird!
Unable to run Thunderbird (from the desktop, the general menu and terminal)
No error message, just the pointer become a timer.
After 5 seconds, it becomes again an arrow.
