Acknowledged and thank you. I will consider yours and another response later this week. Time precludes action now.

Three major options: 

1/ install gnucash everywhere you want to use it, then have some network-accessible data file (network share/drive, revision control, &c.)

2/ install gnucash everywhere you want to use it, then have your data file on the thumbdrive.

3/ look into gnucash portable¹; have both gnucash and your data file on the thumbdrive.
