Other things to look for: What do you get if you export the report (even though it's blank in GnuCash) ? Does the exported file actually contain html you can open in Chrome or Firefox ? Are there message in the trace file [1] after you tried to open the report ? Geert [1] http://wiki.gnucash.or

- And overzealeous anti-virus program perhaps ? Try disabling it temporarily. - Have you tried running gnucash as a different (windows) user to rule out user specific issues ? As Derek I'm not using Windows, so I can only offer generic suggestions. Geert Op dinsdag 28 mei 2019 16:49:59 CEST sch

The bug being referred to is https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645273 The issue seems to have something to do with selecting a default browser on a fresh windows install. Somehow it seems Windows - or WebKitGtk on Windows - blocks all output until the user has made this choice. To date we

I agree that it seems like it should not have worked even then, but it did for me on a couple of machines and for a lot of other users as well. I think there is some strange kind of software leak that gets repaired by that procedure. David Carlson On Tue, May 21, 2019 at 1:18 PM David Carlson w
