Hi Alex,
first of all, it looks strange that C:\Windows\system32 is your
current working directory immediately after staring a command shell.
It should be C:\Users\aw by default.

There is no need to move to a particular directory in order to run
updmap-sys.  Unless you really need a non-standard directory for your
fonts, TeX Live will find all the files automatically.

So I suggest to install the fonts in c:\texlive\texmf-local, run
mktexlsr and then updmap-sys.

If you really need a separate tree for the fonts, this tree has to be
registered in c:\texlive\2019\texmf.cnf, what I don't recommend unless
there is a very good reason.

Also, the directory structure of texmf trees must be TDS compliant, so
omit the directory "libertinetree".  For most fonts on CTAN the .zip
files can be extracted directly in the root of a texmf tree.

Regards,
  Reinhard
