I don't think this was an error message, especially if it's talking
about a quicken file.  It's GnuCash's first-run screen that offers to
help you IMPORT a Quicken file (on the assumption you are trying to
migrate from Quicken to GnuCash).

I have no clue what screen this is.  Perhaps you are looking for the
"New File Assistant"?  As Colin suggest, for that you use File -> New File

Well, no, you wont find anything labeled "Can't Find Default
Configuration Value" because frankly nothing like that exists.
