I would think you'd need both machines to use the same 'locale' in the
OS settings *and* in GnuCash.
I can't fathom how you previously had absolute paths working as they are
different between the two OSes. I'm not even sure relative would work
either unless you just dumped all attachments into one folder at that
level. Nested folders would likely break due to the differing path
separators. And you'd have to set the relative paths independently to
point to the same shared folder on each machine, because from each
machine's perspective that 'relative' path is itself absolute. It is
just landing you in a nested folder without having to navigate from the
root of the file tree each time. But how it records the location of that
nested folder is I would imagine absolute, and specific to the OS in use
at the time it is set.

I’ll install the new version, clean |%APPDATA%|, then clone my SQLite
database and open it. Hop it resolve the first issue!
I didn’t find a solution for Pathos.
