Hi all,
I'm working off a new laptop and Windows 7. I'm unfamiliar with Windows
7, GNUCash, and Gnome for that matter. I installed GNUCash, and let it do
its thing. It installed under program files and everything loads and works
fine. I'm getting into a bit of a mess however, in terms of where my data
is being stored. Under my User Account "Steve", several folders are
automatically generated everytime I use GNUCash and it clutters up my
"Steve" folder. I specifically created a new folder "GNUCash" within
"Steve" to which I saved my .gnucash financial data file to. I move/delete
the folders from my "Steve" folder to "GNUCash", but they continue to
reappear everytime I use the program. Most of them have no data contained
within them, and seem to be just taking up space. The folders are named as
follows:
.gconf
.gconfd
.gnome2
.gnome2_private
.gnucash
Is there a way to redirect where these folders live? Its a bit of an
eye-sore under my main account folder.
Thanks for any help you can provide!!
