Hi, It's missing the ".exe* in the file name. Did you save it like that or did you download it from a different source other than github or sourceforge? On Mon, Apr 10, 2023, 6:51 AM Christopher Smallman via gnucash-user < gnucash-user@gnucash.org> wrote: > I am trying to find help with setting

Re: [GNC] set up Gnucash on a new device

Hello Christopher - I don't think it's an executable. Windows is trying to find the program to open it with and can't find it in the store. I'd re-download it from the official store and turn on extension visibility per David H.'s comment and try again. Michael On Mon, Apr 10, 2023 at 7:06 AM D

Re: [GNC] set up Gnucash on a new device

Good point, I forgot about that. However, the machine is acting as if it doesn't recognize the extension: ".setup". Hopefully Christopher can shed some light on it. On Mon, Apr 10, 2023 at 8:05 AM David H wrote: > Glenn > > Is it though? That possibly depends on whether show file extensions i

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

Both MacOS and Windows are case-preserving, case-insensitive filesystems. This means that when you create a file or directory, the case (upper or lower) of each character is preserved in the name. However when looking for a file or directory the case doesn't matter "GnuCash" and "Gnucash" are equiv

Re: [GNC] set up Gnucash on a new device

The file shows "Application" in the Type column, which is exactly what you would expect from an .exe file if Hide Extensions was on. Thus that aspect seems fine to me. It looks to me more like Windows 11 is further tightening the control of unsigned executables. Perhaps there's a Windows Settin

Re: [GNC] set up Gnucash on a new device

From the web I see that this was a known issue with Windows 10 in the past, apparently caused by the file association for .exe files being corrupted, but I don't see reports anywhere for Windows 11. If this was the case, it would presumably happen with other .exe files as well. Some places sugg

At a guess, it's just a warning that you don't have the key set, even it it is not using it for anything. On Sat, Apr 8, 2023 at 6:51 PM David G. Pickett via gnucash-user < gnucash-user@gnucash.org> wrote: > I have no currency rate quotes, just US stocks in US dollars. > > > -Original Message

Thank you. That allows me to import QIF files. I am looking to import QFX/OFX files. I searched in the accelerator-map file for QFX/OFX which brought me to (gtk_accel_path "/gnc-plugin-ofx-actions/OfxImportAction" "i") and for some reason that gets me a "find account" dialogue!? From: Murugan

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

Just to be sure, I changed I to Z, and when I tried that key combination nothing happened. It looks like OFXimportAction does nothing. I also did a search on AQBanking, as that is where I do my manual import, and while many instances came up, none of them seemed to be connected to OFX files.
