You should use https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnucash/files/gnucash%20%28stable%29/2.6.19/gnucash-2.6.19-setup.exe/download <https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnucash/files/gnucash%20(stable)/2.6.19/gnucash-2.6.19-setup.exe/download> or https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/releases/download/2.6.19/gnucash-2.6.19-setup.exe <https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/releases/download/2.6.19/gnucash-2.6.19-setup.exe>

(They’re the same file; Github lacks SourceForge’s annoying advertising).

And I’ll get the mess of wrong pointers and names cleaned up.
