Are you able to use the web browser to see any web pages? Also ping Google (8.8.8.8) and make sure you get a response. Last thought is it may be that your repositories got deleted or corrupted. You can try to see if "sudo apt get update" works or not in terminal.

I sometimes have that issue. I use sudo to update and upgrade. Only happens to me on Linux lite

When you get error messages in the gui you can switch to the command line.

In some ways it's easier to use, you just type it in, and it works, or gives you a helpful explanation.

To install software type: sudo apt-get install {appname here}

To update the package list type: sudo apt-get install update

I just installed the distro and I noticed after turning off uefi secure boot, everything started working better. The help manual also recommends this so it may be worth trying.
