Thanks - that helped me to do the next step: Just create a new file:
File -> New File I followed the recommendations, at the end I gave a name, and should download everything to C:\Program Files (x86)\gnuucash\bin]\spf-total.gnucash BUT I got: ...may be on a read-only file system ... you may not have write permission... or your anti-virus software is preventing this action. Why? So what next? I see the whole range of directories have been created: *Assets* *Expenses* *Income* *Liabilities* but I cannot save what I created. I beg to be aware that I do not have any people around (in the Cambodian countryside, where I live) whom I could ask here... But I still have a previous unsolved question: Why did I have to take action (thanks for the advice!), initiating the creation of New Files - is this not part of the setup? Any problem on my side? Thanks for the help - we start moving. Norbert = On 8/31/2022 21:46, David Carlson wrote:
Norbert, That message means that GnuCash did not find and open an existing data file so it is expecting you to create a new one. Thus Derek's answer.
