So im rather new this whole linux stuff but i took a pc and installed 18.04 on it. after using that for a while i decided that i wanted a change in scenery so i upgraded to 19.10 since that was the version it told me was the latest... this all went fine, no complications at all. later on i was on my normal pc that runs windows and i made an ubuntu vm out of sheer boredom and saw that 20.04 was actually the latest release when i was looking for an iso as the one i had was still 18.04. so when i went back on to 19.10 machine i thought i would be as simple it was upgrading from 18.04, but boy was i wrong. the only error ive really gotten is "This version no longer supported. Please install a supported version." anyone have any ideas?

Ubuntu 19.10 is an edition with short time support. It is now end of life for just a little time, so indeed remaining installs cannot anymore be updated. Your only option now is to perform a fresh install.

A fresh install is in general the best approach. You then start afresh with a new system configured according to the latest insights. No old configuration data is lingering around.
