I was unable to get WSL working on my machine, as I use VirtualBox and have
to disable some Windows components for that to work.  So, I created a new
Ubuntu VM and installed GnuCash.  My data file opened without issue and has
worked for almost a week,  No idea what I can do about my Windows
installation.  Is there a way to completely remove GnuCash so I get
pristine install?
