This definitely means that a .gtkrc-2.0 file has been generated. If not 
these theme changes would not have been visible.

The only reasons I can imagine for not finding this in your home 
directory would be either:
1. either your folder preferences hide this file for you
2. or you have altered the value of the HOME environment variable to 
point somewhere else. Is such a line in
\program files (x86)\gnucash\etc\gnucash\environment ?
