Guess I'm late to the party.  Here's a link to an article from 5 years ago that says the same stuff and more, and explains more clearly.

Googling  for that error message finds lots of hits.  It seems to be
do do with having a drive that windows thinks is there but actually
isn't.  Something like that anyway.  There are some solutions offered.

Were either of you at any time storing your GnuCash files on an SD card?

If so, I’d suggest using a card to load the file, then doing a Save As 
elsewhere (with the card still in the drive). Then close and re-open GnuCash to 
load from the new location. THEN Safely Eject and remove the SD card.

Otherwise, some sort of bug is at play.

I have the same issue on Windows 7 and GnuCash 3.2, and I believe its because I 
have several SD card readers on my machine and no cards installed in them.


I haven't looked into a work around yet, but I agree its highly annoying.


I figure I'll need to uninstall my SD card readers in order to stop the alerts.


Anyone else have any thoughts?

Subject: [GNC] No Disk error

Dear all I want to report a problem already submitted in this mailing list
with no answer so far:

Hi!

I am starting over with gnucash, and thought I'd do a clean re-install.
Note, I am on windows, and have removed all the gnucash files I could
find before installing 3.1.

However, now I am getting an annoying error message every time I try to
look at the preferences, as well as when I do "save as":

Gnucash.exe - No Disk
There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive
\Device\Harddisk1\DR1.

I have the options Cancel, Try Again and Continue. Try Again just pops
up the message again, so do the other two too. However, if I click
enough times on Cancel or Continue, the message goes away.

Note, when I change something in Preferences, that change stays when I
quit and restart.

This is quite annoying, and if anybody could shed some light on what has
happened and how to get rid of said message, I'd be very happy.

Karin

your help will great.

Thanks

I am going to go out on a limb here and suggest it is a Micro$oft
"upgrade" problem.  My home Winoze server is up 24/7 (yes I know, ughh
run a real os ), barring power outages out here in the sticks.

I do not know how many updates my computer installed since its last
reboot but; I do know that I have had trouble for the last week
accessing usb drives.  Part of the time they exist and part of time they
don't according to windoze.

Not much help but; a little more information.
