Thanks again, David, for your guidance. Obviously I had previously made
one or some mistakes, so when I tried to follow the advice in your mail
down here, it did not work.

But now I am happy.

I uninstalled GnuCash, cleaned my computer from all  remaining GnuCash
rest pieces, made a new installation, and followed all the steps in your
mail down here, and everything showed up as you had written.

A big THANKS. But I need further guidance - please.

WHAT NEXT?

Norbert

    When you click on File->Save As you should get a dialogue box
    opening. On the right hand side of the dialogue is a small icon
    which looks like a hanger that you use in a filing cabinet with a
    plus sign.

    The directory/folder you are currently in is displayed at the top
    of the main panel of the dialogue and the Left Hand Panel  should
    have your disks and locations listed.

    Select the disk in that panel and then navigate to the location
    where you want to create the new folder to containyour GnuCash
    data file.

    Then click on the icon at the right hand side (filehanger) and you
    will get a popup box in which you can enter the name of the
    folder/directory you wish to create. Enter the name and click on
    the "Create " button. This will then create the folder and change
    to it.

    At the top you will see a box labelled "Name".  Enter the name you
    wish to give the file in this box and click on the "Save As"
    button at the bottom right hand side of the dialogue box and the
    file will be created.

    I am a Linux user so I am presuming that the Windows popup will
    look the same as on Linux but it might be slightly different . I
    think GnuCash uses the system file open/save  dialogues AFAIK.
