I have tried to update my Ubuntu 14.04 to wily wolf but somehow It failed and I restored my factory Ubuntu i.e.,14.04. Now I can't login to my desktop and every time I login it returns to the same page. I also can't access terminal from my login page. Cntlr+alt+ f2 and other keys are not working for me. I can access terminal from guest account but can't do much as guest user has no authority.please help. I know little about Ubuntu. I appreciate your Help. Thanks.

It sounds like you really messed something up bad. Try this:
- Boot from Live DVD/USB
- Mount your
/partition if not already mounted - Copy all your files from your old installation onto another drive (preferably an external USB)
- Reinstall Ubuntu 16.04, with a clean install
- Copy all your files back into the new installation.
That should do it. Without more information I can't tell you what to do other than recover data and reinstall.
