I found it odd to get stuck on an earlier version without testing a new one
before.

I use GnuCash 3.3 on W10 without major issues, except for what development
has not yet given us and the critical version migration issues have already
been resolved and I've helped in this.
Bug reporting is one way we can help.

Updating and downgrade is very simple.
