Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Reading your report it appears you are mostly after support.

This bug report can be converted to a question (aimed at support); bug reports however are primarily aimed at finding problems, then fixing so subsequent users won't stumble with the same issue.

You can also find help with your problem in the support forum of your local Ubuntu community http://loco.ubuntu.com/ or asking at https://askubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org, or for more support options please look at https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/community-support/709

Also please note Ubuntu 19.04 is the 2019-April (year.month) release of Ubuntu which has a supported life of 9 months. It reaches it's EOL next month (18-Jan-2020), so you could try 19.10 and save yourself the release-upgrade step you'd have to do very soon anyway.
