Since I've never run into this kind of problem before with an error message, this broken count<0. Left clicking on package manager is no different than right clicking. (what error message says to do) What this site says to do is put in command sudo apt-get install-f. Where do I put that command as I have tried different places without anything happening. I'm just into basic computer use so this is a problem for me.

You are asked to use the "command line interface" (CLI). You do that by opening a terminal, which can be done by pressing CTRL + ALT + T. There, enter the command sudo apt-get install -f (mind the space after install) and press ENTER.

You will be asked for your password, which will not appear on the screen, not even as *****, as you might expect.

Then, the apt software installation program will start, which will try to sort out what you need to get a fully working system.
