I have tried reinstalling, turning pc off and on, and I went AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Common/ and then I don't see Essential Sound ???? I need help

Based on the screenshot of your system's specs, it does not meet the minimum hardware requirements to run even Premiere Pro CC 2015, let alone Premiere Pro 2019. All these versions now require far more RAM installed than what your system currently has. 8 GB is now the absolute minimum for all recent versions of Premiere Pro while Premiere Pro 2019 now recommends at least 32 GB of RAM.

 

To top it off, that laptop's CPU, despite it being a quad-core CPU, is actually weaker than even the weakest dual-core Pentium Gold CPU, let alone a current-gen Core I-series U processor. This is because the Pentium N-series is not based on the Core architecture at all - but is actually based on the substantially inferior Atom architecture. You basically have a CPU that's only about as powerful as a smartphone in that laptop.

If you haven't updated your Intel graphics drivers yet, read this: https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/kb/gpu-and-gpu-driver-requirements-for-premiere-pro.html

If you were able to launch it before, but now you cannot after the update to 2019, then 2019 is now becoming very picky. You assumed that the minimum hardware requirements didn't change at all between older and newer versions while in reality they have changed very significantly. 2019 will not launch at all if your system has less than 8 GB of installed RAM in your system regardless of the rest of the hardware configuration.

 

This just goes to prove that you failed to read the minimum system requirements on Adobe's Web site itself.

Look, I'm not one to reject requests for help based on the specs of one's computer like others on the forum might, but your computer has only 4GB of RAM and a Pentium processor. I have to assume that the issue is the onboard graphics card: https://community.adobe.com/t5/Premiere-Pro/Premiere-Pro-CC-stalls-at-ImporterQuickTime-prm-quot-Unable-to/td-p/5920240

 

What version of the Intel Graphics Driver are you running?
