[GNC] Can no longer print checks

[HB Sidman]

Hi,

After using gnucash for several years I decided it was time to upgrade 
from 2 to 3 a few months ago. Bad decision. If it is not broken don't 
fix it. The upgrade went smoothly with no problem. Every function worked 
both old and new. Until I tried to print a check. At which point nothing 
happened with the printer. After a 2 or 3 minutes I got a warning 
message that my check file was a fragment. I went into the system to 
verify that and found that all the .chk files were fragments. I tried to 
reload new files but they kept being replaced by the fragments.

Step 2: I went back gnucash 2 last stable version on line. It reloaded 
without a problem but still could not print checks. Same problem.

Step 3: Loaded gnucash 2 on a laptop that had never had it on it before. 
Then took a saved file from 3 months before the problem happened and 
loaded it. Once again everything went fine until I tried to print. Then 
was presented the same problem of .chk file fragments and not being able 
to replace them.

Step 4: Using the laptop as my test bed, I removed everything gnucash 
from the hard drive. Search the C drive for any thing left and removed 
it as the administrator. Then did a search for .chk and found 4 files 
buried on the C drive - all fragments. I could delete them but they 
would come right back as soon as I restarted the computer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated - I am getting tired of hand 
writing all of my checks.

I am running Windows 10 on all of my computers and they are all 
completely up to date.

Thanks,

HB
