Some time ago I installed and tested release 2.7.3 on my Windows 7 machine, then I re-installed release 2.6.18 which I had previously been using.
Later on I started experiencing a crash every few days. After further attempts to establish what was triggering the crashes, I was not seeing any pattern other than only GnuCash crashed and none of my other programs did. Then I noticed that none of the Help buttons distributed around the program could find and open the Tutorial or the Contents files. F1 did not work either. I am now fairly certain that there was some sort of GTK something left laying around after reverting back to 2.6.18. Upgrading to release 2.6.19 did not stop the crashing. I temporarily created a new user in this machine and found that the new user could run Gnucash and read the help files. 1. Is anyone else seeing similar strange behavior? 2. If this is the issue, it must be somewhere other than in the GnuCash program folder or my User Gnucash settings folder does anyone have a suggestion where to look next? 3. Is it possible that the best option would be to simply wait for release 3.0 oon this machine? 4. I have various instances of releases 2.6.something on other machines, but it seems each one has one issue or another such as not being able to access the network file server or network printer or whatever. When I do switch to release 3.0 they will all need to be abandoned or upgraded, so I will need to go slowly to avoid shooting myself in the foot again. Thanks for reading this.
