Thanks to all the folks who have responded to this thread! I think I now
have a usable workaround for the inability to install multiple GC
versions in the same Windows computer.

After putting it off again and again, I'm finally ready to upgrade to a
more recent version.
1. I'm on 2.6.19 now. I know conventional advice is to upgrade to the
last minor version of each major version in turn. Do I really need to

Both of those features were present at least as long ago as 2.6.19. I

I apologize for asking a question that must have been asked before, but
I couldn't turn up answers by googling or in the archives.
Can GC 4.13 coexist on the same Windows 10 machine with GC 2.6.19? They
would be accessing separate data files in separate folders, and would
not be executing

Thanks for confirming that you selected Reverse Balance Accounts: Credit

GC works in our case.
I'm assuming (I think we all are) that when you created the account and

I should just save it as a file rather than rewriting it from scratch

That depends.
To you, your bank account is an asset. Debits increase assets and
credits reduce them, so a deposit is a debit and a withdrawal is a

In Windows, it's in the System Registry at
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\GSettings\org\gnucash\history
I don't know what that corresponds to in Linuxland.

That doesn't necessarily mean that the program has stopped working. Use

Update -- 2.6.19 does prompt only once per variable, after all.
I thought it did, because, when the transaction fires, the UI for

anyway). I entered the amount and clicked the OK button, but was
