I had trouble installing virtualbox for ubuntu 17.10. To run it properly I needed to configure dpkg and when I restarted the system it showed some lines of code like "failed to load resource and the platform". I know how to install ubuntu again, because the first time I did with an USB and this time I'll do the same, but the problem is: How can I recover my files? Thanks!

You have a few options here:
- Boot from your installation USB drive, select advanced options, go into recovery mode, mount your file systems and copy your data off--perhaps to a different USB drive
- Boot from your installation USB, reinstall the OS, but keep the filesystem intact during install
