So at work i have this all in one dell computer but the screen got smashed. So my boss gave me a monitor and the dell doesn't have an hdmi port but it has a couple of spare usb ports. So my question is can i just get a regular usb 3.0 to vga converter? Or do i need something else?
 
What video port does the AIO has?
What video port does your monitor has?
Planning on USB-to-VGA adapter as a main display, when main display does not work, might bring you troubles. You can get brand-new HDMI monitor for little-bit more than the price of quality USB-Video adapter.

The dell all in one says its a optiplex 5260 AIO series windows, the monitor is a syncmaster 931 BF samsung if that helps. I bought an Ihome USB-C to VGA adapter and it flashes between analog and digital settings and stops at check cable digital
