Did the installer remove the old version of GnuCash when you upgraded? Try
uninstalling and then installing the new version. (Someone with more
experience than I can weigh in on whether you should use an uninstall
utility such as the free Revo Uninstaller.)

Also go to http://www.gnucash.org/ and follow the link on the home page and
be sure you're installing a good copy of the official application.
Occasionally files can get corrupted while downloading. Also if it came
from an unofficial source it's possible someone modified it.

I rarely use Windows, so please be sure to reply to the list and let
everyone know what worked (or not).
