How can I try this ??? No terminal I said
I’m glad you’re here… Actually you’re right I installed something before i shutdown last time , if i remember something like Vim …
I tried to do all what You said,
Look what they say that there’s some broken packages
And when I rebooted , keep the same problem.
Ah, I see. Yes, you may have gotten bitten by the “sudo apt-get autoremove”
Do not worry, all is not lost.
Go back through the recovery menu as above, after enabling the Networking and drop to prompt
Enter in
sudo apt-get install -y zorin-os-lite-core
sudo apt install -y xserver-xorg-core
This one is IMPORTANT
sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-all
Then,
sudo apt-get install -y zorin-os-lite-desktop
You MAY get a notice on trying the next line that something is already installed- that means only that your previous installation installed the item you are trying to install after- I am only trying to be thorough.

Everytime I enter a command , always there’s an error of broken packages.
This is the last command error
I am sorry, I seem to be a little slow this morning. I am noticing that in your screenshots, your sudo apt update is Failing to resolve the ppas for Zorin and Ubuntu.
Are you enabling Networking before dropping to prompt?
It looks like there is no net connection.

I think I DID, I repeated everything again , when I enable network they said done and return to recovery menu …
I tried the sudo apt update . That’s what i get
That screenshot shows no net connection. Hmmm… Are you normally connected through WiFi?
If so, you may need to connect Directly through LAN cable. I hope you can connect wired for a moment…

Excuse me for taking too much of your time.
I connect now Via cable…
I entered all the commands
It’s take too much time of setting up progressing. (Sometimes I see there’s unpacking lines…)
Then i rebooted !
Unfortunately No news !
Accually , there’s a good new thing .
I can launch Terminal using the shortcut
You are launching terminal from the Graphical Interface?
Ok, from that, this means xorg is running
From there, you can try installing the zorin desktop core and zorin desktop common
sudo apt-get install zorin-os-lite-core
as above commands we tried earlier, then reboot…

No panel before nothing only background.
But
For xfce4-panel
I entered it then the panel shows
For the second xfwm4 --replace
My desktop background change … mixture of my background +black but the panel still there .
Ok… in terminal on that machine, run
sudo apt update
Check that you do not see the “FAILED” messages like you saw before.
Then run
sudo apt install full-upgrade

U know … I can use other windows like menu settings… .
Only desktop No …it seems like doesn’t exist … even when I try right click in it … nothing shown…
I also in that same other thread made a recommendation that I am about to make here, as well…
You currently have access to all of your personal files, at least. So, I would recommend backing them up and saving them on a different drive- then reinstalling Zorin OS.
What happened to you has also happened to me before- I used sudo apt remove on a package that took the Zorin OS desktop with it. And… I have done this more than once in my time using Zorin… 
The first time, I recovered by dropping to prompt and reinstalling zorin core and zorin desktop as we tried above. The second time, I reinstalled Zorin.
Since we lack confidence in What Is Missing, I think your best option is to back up your personal files and reinstall Zorin OS and get a good solid fresh start. And this way, at least, we did some good by getting access to all your personal files.
