I tried the suggestion "Comment - my path to finance-quote health after 
quotes stopped working after two years and the reinstall failed; short 
version: Win10, GNC2.6.13; Uninstall Strawberry Perl using the Revo 
Uninstaller; download latest Strawberry Perl (5.24) from Strawberry 
website; reinstall finance-quote using the GnuCash menu link." but the 
same thing happened again. Anyway, Thanks for trying to help me.
