See if Get the Latest Release does what you want.

Nope, it just goes to a generic Mathworks page that does not have an obvious link.

There is no upgrade procedure between releases; there is just installing a newer release.

If you install a new version that is no more than two releases newer than the previous version, then MATLAB will copy your preferences.

The download page for R2019b specifically is https://www.mathworks.com/downloads/web_downloads/download_release?release=R2019b . However, not all accounts have access to that download page; in particular, Student licenses apparently do not have access.
