I believe I tried it again with Win 10, GNUCash 4.2 I had some trouble 
with the workaround so decided to just wait until I saw some release 
notes that it was fixed...


I'm referring to this problem which John Ralls commented on awhile back;

    that time I successfully setup OFX direct connect to my credit
    union. I updated GC a time or two. I guess it broke in a version
    between that but recently I upgraded to 4.1

    This is a bug, we think in AQBanking. I've documented the
    work-around and what to do if it fails on
    https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Setting_up_OFXDirectConnect.

When you are dead, you don't know you are dead. It's pain only for others.

It's the same thing when you are stupid.
