you have no such partition UUID:1d152923-1a42-4186-b72d-69aec580a779. It is specified in /etc/fstab, but lsblk or blkid did not show that.
It was another disk? Or did you change the partitions?

as i remember, I have not try to modify the disk intentionally. After a reboot/shutdown i was in emergency mode.
But can we reconfigure the disk partition to work as before?
I can access to my personal data from Windows, it seems it has not currpted ,i guess:

probably there is (was) a /dev/sda7. Probably it is lost somehow and you need to recover (looks like the space is there).
Here is a guide to try to recover: https://www.simplified.guide/linux/r...artition-table.

I'm afraid no. You need to add a new partition to that table, and I have no any idea about the parameters (like first block/last block/size ...).
TestDisk will tell you these - if found.
Actually you do not need to boot another OS, you can use what you have, just you must not save anything, use it in analyze mode first.

after using the testdrive, sda7 created as you said and contain personal data without demaging it (i checked from windows):

Code:
sda           8:0    0 465.8G  0 disk 
├─sda1        8:1    0   500M  0 part 
├─sda2        8:2    0 213.4G  0 part 
├─sda3        8:3    0     1G  0 part 
├─sda4        8:4    0     1K  0 part 
├─sda5        8:5    0   7.8G  0 part [SWAP]
├─sda6        8:6    0    50G  0 part 
└─sda7        8:7    0 193.1G  0 part
But i stuck on boot screan now:

yes, it looks like a lot of services died. Could not be started. You (we) need to find the reason somehow.
But if your data is located on /dev/sda7 probably you can try to reinstall the OS.

I tried to recover by using bootRecover but that did not work too.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair

Than kept the home folder as same for the new OS, than installed Ubuntu.
Now i have my old files, we can assume the case solved.

Thank you pan64 for your help, and time.

that boot repair was not related (at least I wouldn't expect that). It was not a boot or boot loader issue, but the next phase when the boot loader [already] started the OS and the OS could not complete its initialization. A hard to find case.
Anyway reinstall was much quicker. Glad it is finally solved.
(If you really want to say thanks just click on yes)
