I had Ubuntu installed and wanted to remove Python 3. I accidently removed every Python version installed because I didn't know Ubuntu Desktop needs Python to run. I had to reinstall Ubuntu completely (I almost didn't have any files). But now upon bootup my PC gets stuck in the purple screen. I force-shut it down and boot it backup. The screen with Memtest and Advanced Options appears, I select Ubuntu and then it briefly checks some blocks and boots up as to be expected. I don't want to run through this procedure every single time. Do you have any ideas what could cause these problems? Is it a problem with GRUB? I have got a Dell Inspiron 5300 Tower.
UPDATE:
This is my lightdm.log

I know it's kind of messy but I didn't know how to do it better ATM.
There are also .old.log
versions of these files do you need them?
