So i manually created, copied skel files manually and changed the owner from root to selva. At the same time i observed that so many files copied from /etc to /home directory on the same time and some files owners are showing as selva.
We assume that you were logged in as "root" and typed one of more commands incorrectly which caused unexpected change to the system.
What did you actually type?
(If you have a .sh_history file , have a look at it with the "strings" command).
Ps. I can't read your ".jpg" attachments. Can you post in text?
