Adrien, A couple of reasons: I never hurry updates; I'm lazy; with the turmoil of recent versions, waiting seems prudent; I'm in no need of newer features or fixes.
That being said, this behavior is weird enough and sporadic enough that I'm still not sure that I'm somehow causing it (as with my troubles getting custom reports to load and display), but I am reasonably sure that whatever it is, if it exists, it's been around for a long time. Like a snark maybe.

I understand some Linux users stick with old versions in their repo, and some people still haven’t migrated from 2.6, but I don’t see anything compelling with 3.5 over 3.10. I wonder if that behavior still exists in 3.10? Regards, Adrien > On Jun 19, 2020 w25d171, at 9:56 PM, D. via gnucash-user > <gnucash-user@gnucash.org> wrote: > > David, > > Thanks for the reply.
