As noted by Maf., 2.1.16 is ancient. It will not read the 3.x file. (if you got that far) I don’t think 2.1 will even install on Win10. (if you can even find it)
dtaus.xml has to do with Aqbanking. (allows you to make a transaction in your bank account *from* GnuCash) They dropped DTAUS support in their new version 6 and GnuCash 3.5 is supposed to work with Aqbanking-v6, so not sure why you are getting that error. (the file, I should think, shouldn’t even be part of the package, unless it was retained for backwards compatibility with older systems.) First, I’d do a system-wide search for the file and completely trash it. (the file might already be on the system and corrupted, causing a problem) Then, download 2.6.21 and try that. If that installs and you can successfully open your file, look over your data and make sure there are no problems. When you are satisfied everything is okay, download 3.5-1 (an updated Windows installer) and install it. Barring that, since you mention you’ve successfully installed 3.5 on a different Win10 machine, maybe a ‘refresh’ of Win10 is in order? (be sure to make a backup of everything first) Regards, Adrien > On May 1, 2019, at 11:32 AM, David Jaggar <davidjag...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello Sachin, > I'm in Britain, so with the time difference, it has meant a delay in > following up. > Good thinking to install on another computer.
