I bought the laptop with 16.04, I upgraded to 18.04 and now focal, yes.

~$ dpkg -l | grep gnome-control-center
ii gnome-control-center-data 1:3.34.1-1ubuntu3
all configuration applets for GNOME - data files
> also how did you upgrade? using the dist-upgrader or editing
sources/using apt?
the dist-upgrader refused to upgrade, bailing out with something about a
pre-release (sorry I didn't copy the message), so I edited
/etc/apt/sources.list (all other sources were disabled by the upgrade to
1804 and I didn't re-enable them)
I'll attach the requested bits before trying the 'apt install'.
