[GNC] Updates

[Alan A Holmes]

You should only have 1 GnuCash file, called “yourname”.gnucash, and lots of backup files (“yourname”.yyyymmddhhmmdd.gnucash) and log files (“yourname”.yyyymmddhhmmdd.log) in the folder where you originally specified they be stored. If you can’t find that do a search on your file system for “yourname”.gnucash using File Explorer or the search icon on the taskbar.

Thank you Alan.

 

Would I then just choose the most recent GnuCash Financial Data file?  I apologize, as I am not a very technical person.

Hi Rhonda,

Is this simply an issue with GnuCash not remembering the file/s previously?
If so then you can use File->Open to locate the GnuCash file you want, and
it should then remember it on future occasions.

There have been similar threads recently, and this has usually been the
problem.

Windows programs can/do occasionally forget the list of previously opened
files, if a malware scanning app has been used. Some of these apps can
occasionally clear this type of thing if it's stored in the windows registry
or some easily identified other location.
