Hi Kevin, Note that Gnucash Get Quotes has been completely rewritten so there is no longer a gnc-fq-check script in gnucash version 5 that's why you are getting the error, check your C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin folder - this was mentioned in the release notes :-) There's only gnc-fq-update and gnc-path-check (which you can't run manually apparently) now so probably nothing wrong with your Perl install.
