Login Loop in Ubuntu 16.04 after editing the Path

I was editing the path as said in this page: Source
After I did that, I logged out, and ever since that, I was not able to Login.
I have tried various Login Loop Remedies said in this Exchange, but was not possible.
I think the error was due to the fact that, I may have entered a wrong path first and then appended the remaining path as said in the Source page:
PATH=/path/to/command/directory:$PATH
Is there a solution to revert back and able to login normally?
command-line bash login paths pam-environment

Have you tried logging in at a text terminal:
Ctrl+Alt+F1- Enter user name then password
If you can log in this way you could temporarily rename ~/.pam_environment:
mv ~/.pam_environment ~/.pam_environment.bak
Then switch back to the graphical login (Ctrl+Alt+F7) and try again.
