[GNC] Run GnuCash Upgrades Side-by-side With Older Versions

[davidbrown.rdps at photos.bozeat.biz]

I wonder if creating another windows account as a user/guest, doing an
install would allow that single user to be the benefit of that installed
programme.  Ther is sometimes the question during install whether for 1 user
or all users. 

 

It does also give the benefit of the local files in
"C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash" and stored reports to be used
just for the associated main GNU file.

Greg,

 

The only way I know is to use two different computers and two different data
files.
