You're running a very old version of RetroPie/Raspbian, which no longer has updates and it's no longer supported.
The RetroPie-Setup menu needs some new (well, they were new a few years back) dependencies, which your system cannot install anymore. In fact, RetroPie-Setup has probably shown a message when you started it that your system is no longer supported. -
@musaab123 any updates mine is doing the same thing
