Ubuntu 16.04, no Launcher or top panel after update

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 on my desktop and have a big problem with Unity. After an update (February this year) I lost the Launcher, the panel on the top of the screen with the username, the time, language and all the other buttons. In addition, the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T doesn't work.
I found some similar treats here and on other sites, tried the solutions there but nothing worked for me. I tried to install the Gnome environment but unsuccessfully. Finally, I managed to install Mate, but don't like it and it has some pretty serious bugs, e.g., when I add keyboard layouts for other languages, they don't work. In the last few months I was hoping that this issue will be fixed by some update but this hasn't happened so far.
Can someone help me fix Unity? I don't want to reinstall Ubuntu. It will cost me a lot of time to back up files.
