Did you update to Debian 9 and then to Debian 10? If you skipped releases
- there's no straightforward way to work out what's gone wrong, necessarily.

This might be better asked in debian-user: debian-project is perhaps
not the most appropriate place.

You can always start again: install Jessie from the beginning then 
update to the latest versions gradually. Back up / save any data
from the machine before you do so: the installation from new
will almost certainly wipe all data.
