[GNC] [GNC-dev] Missing column header labels after resizing columns (Windows 10, GC version 4.12)

[john]

That's a user-list question. I've changed the CC for your convenience.

The file you're looking for is the book's metadata file, see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Metadata_File. It stores among other things window sizes and column widths for registers.

Regards,
John Ralls
