Ubuntu 17.10: How to restore my deleted and currently enabled lightdm theme?

Everything works well yesterday. I have deleted my currently enabled LightDM theme using sudo in terminal because I thought it was the only way to remove the configuration of LightDM GTK+ Greeter Settings and restore it to the default login screen. Now it is forever stuck on the loading screen with the message
/dev/sda1/:clean .../... files, .../... blocks
Here's the post from the other forum that I had followed before it gone stucked:
First purge the package and remove the PPA.
sudo apt-get purge lightdm-gtk-greeter*
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:lightdm-gtk-greeter-team/stable
sudo apt-get update
Then edit the file that reads the greeter.
gksudo gedit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/10-ubuntu.conf
change this line
greeter-session=lightdm-gtk-greeter
to this
greeter-session=unity-greeter
if the line above does not exist, add it.
if above file/path does not exits (depends on Ubuntu version) try this one
gksudo gedit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
Then reconfigure both DM and greeter
sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm unity-greeter Reboot your PC.
Reference: How to return the login screen of the original unity ubuntu?
After that, it was stuck already.
I also have NVIDIA installed but I don't know if it affects the lightDM but it does affect the GNOME 3.
