[GNC] Help with Install Finance::Quote

Hi Kiel

OK, Capture 1 indicates that Finance Quote has not been installed 
properly - a not uncommon problem.  The message about "as root" 
translates to "as Administrator" on Windows 10.

So, you need to open a command prompt as Administrator, change directory 
to where *your* GunCash programs are installed, and run the installation 
script - see attached screenshot.

Be patient - the installation sometimes appears to freeze up and can 
take up to 30 minutes to complete successfully.

Regards

Geoff
