Barry.

This whole thing seems to be a mess, with different users, different levels of 
backup files being used and reused, and folders seemingly vanishing.  I'm not 
sure that introducing .txt files randomly will help anyone.

Can you still open whatever you think is your most "recent" gnucash data file  
(ie the one you think has the most recent changes in it)?   (just starting the 
program from the menu might do it - not worrying about users and data files and 
so on)

Can you then "Save As"  and a create new file (choose a sensible filename) just 
in the top level of the user's folder?  (that at least will get over the 
problem of which user is trying to save files, clean-up can wait....)
