I was trying to fix the files/nautilus NOT working then went down a rabbit hole until I came here. Files/nautilus is still not working and I'm having same problem of unattended upgrades. I've attached the term.log as well.
here's the error from terminal @dgd-System-Product-Name:~$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done The following packages will be upgraded: unattended-upgrades 1 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. 1 not fully installed or removed.

During execution of "Software Updater", it freezes indefinitely while "Installing updates..." at the step marked "Configuring unattended- upgrades." It appears that this happens if System Settings->Software & Updates->Updates, "Automatically check for updates" has been set to "Never." If that is instead set to "Daily" and the following are then set in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic then the update succeeds: APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "1"; APT::Periodic::Download-Upgradeable-Packages "1"; APT::Periodic::AutocleanInterval "7"; APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "1"; Someone else had asked about this issue at AskUbuntu.
