[GNC] Account Register not Populating

Good morning --

I have just replaced a computer of long time usage. Data files have
been transferred. GnuCash has been reinstalled. All the accounts
appear to be intact.

Operating system: Windows 11 24H2
gnuCash version: Ver 5.9 (2024-9-28)

To open the Account Register, the "GnuCash ... Guide" reads that I
should "... double click the account name, right click the account
name and select Open ..., or use the Open button on the toolbar.
GnuCash will display the account register window."

All of that does work, but ... The Account Register is not populated
with all those years worth of checks and deposits, and the headers
in the three right-hand columns read Expense, Rebate, and Balance,
not the expected Deposit, Withdrawal, and Balance.

I have three checking accounts. Two of them have no data at all, one
of them has one entry, a voided check, with an incorrect "0.00" balance
in the Balance column.

I appreciate any advise that will guide me to restoring the operation of
gnuCash to its former glory.

Thank you in advance.
