[GNC] Possible Bug with GNUCash - GNUCash cannot see/open files with OneDrive

[Gyle McCollam]

I use one drive as well, but I have no problem with GNU Cash finding the info.  However, I have another directory between Documents and GnuCashData.gnucash (although mine is named differently).
When you click on file/open you can navigate to the file on one drive and it should work fine from that point.  I had an old program called Money Counts for Windows (MCW) and when I changed the name of that subdirectory to GNUCash recently, I had a problem with GNC finding my info, but using file/open and navigating to the new directory and then ?????.gnucash worked for me.  Hopefully, this helps.

Thank You,
Gyle McCollam

Subject: [GNC] Possible Bug with GNUCash - GNUCash cannot see/open files with OneDrive

I am wondering if anyone has encountered - or has a possible solution to - this bug I have found. I usually store my GNUCash file in OneDrive. However, with the new update of OneDrive, GNUCash cannot see the file. See the error below. Has anyone also seen this error - or know how to correct it?

Can't parse the URL /Users/<username>/OneDrive/Documents/GnuCashData.gnucash

Thanks - Cameron
