I am unable to boot into my system after giving it a system update. From what i could tell, my EFI partition ran out of space, and the XXX.efi files became corrupt. so I formatted my EFI Partition. I have ran Boot repair on a Live Linux Mint 19 USB, and was given an error, stating that Core.img couldn't be found: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RBjrVtvsfD/ I have forgotten what I have tried in the last months to fix this issue, however I have gotten a Gnu Grub terminal to boot up when starting my computer.
My system was running Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon.

Welcome to the forums.
You might be able to do do a Timeshift restore by booting into Live Mint and running Timeshift. That might help. Post back one way or another.

Nope, my harddrive doesnt contain an RSYNC or BTRFS snapshot to let me timeshift.

I think it is likely you'll have to reinstall unless someone comes up with a better idea.

Solved it, solution was just formatting my hard drive and instaling Linux Mint again.
