Kari, Do you use GnuCash standard file (XML) or do you use a DB program. When you do a file open it defaults to file which is XML. If you used a DB, after you did a File/Open, you would have the change the "Data Format" at the top middle of the "Open" dialogue. I have never used a DB, so this may be totally off the mark.

So I uninstalled gnucash 4.10, rebooted, and reinstalled from a new download. Now the app starts and seems to run correctly (I think I may have gotten a corrupted install file via download). But when I run the app and choose FILE, OPEN and point it at my backed up file June2022.gnucash.gcm I get an error "no suitable backend was found for D:\Documents\gnucash\books\June2022.gnucash.gcm" I know this file is good, as it works with older versions of Gnucash on a W7 PC. So I suspect it is a problem with using the new version app against an old version file. The word "backend" is only found once in the gnucash help, so I am at a loss as to what to do next. I have tried to import, but there doesnt seem to be any import function from older versions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have seen recommendations that users upgrade in steps , not a wholesale upgrade. I would try uninstalling, then install the next major level, say 3.0. Try that and if it lets you in, run "Actions/Check & Repair/Check & Repair All". Then upgrade to v4.0 and repeat. Once this is working, then upgrade to 4.1. Good Luck!
