If everything’s ok, both commands would respond nothing.
First command will give files and folders now belonging to root in your /home/user folder ( ~ personal folder ).
Second will give you files and folders that do not belong to $USER ( you, as in /home/user )
In /home/user everything should belong to $USER, so you may need to re-appropriate them
sudo chown $USER:$USER /path_to/file
or
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path_to/folder
-R meaning recursively → the folder AND everything inside it.
Hope this helps.
