Anytime I try to do something I get an error with 'permission denied', even creating a folder in my home folder.. it happened after installing updates recently and I done a reinstall as I thought I had broken something, but the error is still happening.
Any help is appreciated.

In your terminal of choice you can do
ls -la ~
which will show who owns all the files and folders in your home directory which is what I'd start with

As root:

chown -R username:group /home/username

Where username is your username and group is your default group (usually "users")
