I have a feeling that those higher version of GNC are silently crashing due to improper permission on a file somewhere. Do you know if you have enabled the Ransomware Protection, Tamper Protection or Controlled folder access feature in Windows 11? They tend to sometimes cause these sort of silent error that might be experienced.
If you are up to it, might be worth following steps in https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Stack_Trace which might have traces of GNC failures if GNC is at fault. To capture good deal of debug info, add --debug switch to GNC as part of the gdb call. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Sun, 11 Sep 2022 23:35:53 +0100 From: "Richard Clarkson" <rtclark...@btinternet.com> To: "'Greg Feneis'" <mfen...@gmail.com>, <gnucash-user@gnucash.org> Subject: Re: [GNC] Opening Gnucash Message-ID: <001801d8c62e$da672e20$8f358a60$@btinternet.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Greg Thank you! As I mentioned GnuCash 4.9, Windows 11 (64 bit). Have tried opening from apps, from shortcut, directly from the GnuCash.exe in bin. I cannot open GnuCash from any version higher than 4.9. I see a circle for a few seconds while windows is try to open GnuCash and then nothing. I've tried opening from PowerShell too. Is there any way of seeing where the exe is getting stuck or if something is missing or if I need to update anything? I'm either go to have to stay on 4.9 or change to another program. Thanks you for your help.

Perhaps mention the version of GnuCash you're using, which OS you're using. How do you open GnuCash, by starting the application or by clicking on a saved file? And so on.
