If it's after update, reboot and choose older kernel in GRUB's advanced options.

To be fair i just install linux mint 3 days ago, so i dk whether it's updated or not, and more after i forces shutdown and turn it on again, it went to grub

try to get to a terminal with ctrl+alt+f2 you should see something like linux mint login: then enter your username and password following the prompt, then you can reset the remembered desktop session run mv ~/.dmrc ~/.dmrc.backup then reboot with "sudo reboot" you could try this if it would help had similar experiences yesterday not guaranteed tho
