[GNC] Installation Problem

[Kalpesh Patel]

On Windows I believe 'C:\Program Files(x86)\GnuCash' is common and *NOT* getting cleaned up; not 'C:\Program Files\GnuCash'. I am on v4.14 and it points to 'C:\Program Files(x86)\GnuCash'.

Usually:

C:\Program Files\GnuCash

is the location and what might not get cleaned up properly occasionally, thus throwing the error.

It might also be under:

C:\Program Files(x86)\GnuCash

though that isn't as common for some years now.
