Lost operating system

Please read Writing an effective Apple Support Communities question. We are here to help. We are all users. We are not mind-readers nor clairvoyants. We only know what you write down and tell us. Be specific and thorough. Include your hardware information and installed version of macOS. Try to write clearly. Think about what you want to say before you write it down, then re-read it to see if it makes sense.

Try this:

Install El Capitan or Later from Scratch

If possible, back up your files.

1. Restart the computer. Immediately, at or before the chime, hold down the Command and R keys until the Apple logo and progress bar appear. Wait until the Utility Menu appears.

3. When Disk Utility loads select the target drive (out-dented entry w/type and size info) from the Device list.
4. Click on the Erase button in Disk Utility's toolbar. A panel will drop down.
5. Set the partition scheme to GUID.
6. Set the Format type to APFS (SSDs only) or Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)
7. Click on the Apply button, then wait for the Done button to activate and click on it.
8. Quit Disk Utility and return to the Utility Menu.
9. Select Install OS X and click on the Continue button.
