That looks like GnuCash thought it wasn't opening your file, but
starting a new book.
How did you 'start' GnuCash *exactly* after the 4.14 install?
Also note, you can click Cancel on that first screen, or if it doesn't
show again, and you just get a blank app with either no book or a new
empty unsaved book, you can open your file via File > Open and
navigating to where you last saved it.
That should then clear it up and next time you open GnuCash, it should
remember where your book was and open it for you.
Then do the Check & Repair step once you verify you can open your book.

We started the upgrade process from 2.6.15. The upgrade from 2.6.15 to
2.6.21 and from 2.6.21 to 3.11 seemed to go ok but the upgrade from 3.11 to
4.14 sees to have hit a snag. When we open 4.14 we get a dialog box that
states: 'There are some predefined actions available that most new users
prefer to get started with GnuCash. Select one of these actions from below
and click the OK button or press the Cancel button if you don't want to
perform any of them.'
The options are: Create a new set of accounts
Import my QIF files
Open the new user tutorial
Since we are not new users we chose Cancel but none of our files were
available to use.
We then chose the tutorial but did not find anything that seemed to
address our problem.
Is this the normal way 4;14 upgrades? Do we have to set up a new set of
accounts? Can we import files from our 3.11 backup? Should we reinstall
3.11 and try again?
