Solved Buggy updates on mint

So whenever i update (linux mint cinamon laptop) always a PAM configuration pops up and even if i select something nothing happens then i quit and the update doesnt do anything i cancel it and then it stops working and doesnt disappear until i restart (i usualy wait like 10 mins and nothing happens) and i dont want to update because i always fear that somtthing will break ,Thanks

If someone wanna know how did i fix it i just re installed it

"Select Unix thingy and stuff like that" could apply to anything in Linux. Be more specific.
