The screenshot you posted is unfortunately too small to be readable. Please try running TerrariaServer again. If it outputs errors, please post those here. You should be able to use the regular keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+A to select all, Ctrl+C to copy, Ctrl+V to paste) while that window is selected. You can also click on the icon in the top left corner of that window to access those options.

Looks like an issue with XNA according to that error. I'm trying to point you to an alternative Installer for Microsoft XNA Framework Redistributable 4.0 Refresh, but the download links are broken again. In their infinite wisdom Microsoft seems to have removed them. You can still get it from safe and secure websites elsewhere (what could possibly go wrong? you only get malware and viruses...).
So I suggest not downloading anything and instead work with what you have. In the same folder as TerrariaServer (in Steam right-click on Terraria then select Manage>Browse local files) there's a file named

xnafx40_redist.msi. This is the regular installer for XNA Framework 4.0.- Try right-click on the XNA installer, then select Uninstall.
- Afterwards RESTART your computer (this is important).
- After restarting, try right-click on the XNA installer, then select Install.
that did not woork here is the newest error message:
