Re: [GNC] W11-Installing Gnucash to D Drive

[kschneider bout-tyme . net]

It’s been awhile since I installed GNC. Does the installer ask for an 
installation path?

David,
Since not everyone on this list uses the same email client as you you may need 
to find out which client program Barry uses. I use the default email client on 
my iPad and have no ‘blue send button’ to push.

Then just hi-lite the part you want to reply to before hitting reply-to-all.

 Question about a matter of setup.  I use Windows 11 - so
 answers/information specific to that OS would be appreciated.
 
 First - can two instances of the program be loaded (exist in the system)
 such that one instance opens a personal file and one opens a business file?
 Second - if answer to question one is yes - is this a preference you can
 set and are there advantages to doing it?
 Third - if answer to question one is no - then is the only way to have
 two separate data files is to load the program and force load the specific
 file you want since the program always default opens to the last file you
 dealt with?
 
 Answers, opinions and other information welcomed.  Thanks!  -- Ken

You can’t do that on macOS, it doesn’t work.

The files have meta data that reveals the type of file it is, or did in the 
ancient past of 15-20 years ago. That is why why files didn’t need an extension 
to hint at its contents.

Re: [GNC] No longer receiving the e-mail from the user group

[kschneider bout-tyme . net]

I often find many messages in the junk folder. I simply move them to the Inbox.
This is with MS email server I was forced to use by GoDaddy.

 I just typed gnucash in google and the first hit was an ad pointing to
 gnu-cash.org (with a dash). It is a fake site that is a carbon copy of
 the official site but the download link goes to a setup.exe that is most
 likely a corrupted virus file.
 
 We need this removed ASAP. There is an option in google to report the
 site and mark it as spam/phishing. I imagine if more people do this it will
 get removed faster hopefully.

Another option is to create a new user and see if the behavior affects the new

 Hi David,
 
 Everything I can find says that Gnome (the desktop environment set
 up by
 default in Ubuntu 22.04 - which was also the desktop environment
 used in
 20.04, which worked as expected) does not save window placement
 information. Instead, it is the responsibility of the application.
 Gnome
 will attempt to place applications according to a scheme if the
 application
 does not specify a starting position, but the application gets
 first call
 on that (at least according to what I see - I am not an expert on
 this).
 
 I am starting to wonder, though, if something in Gnome hasn't
 changed (or
 maybe a setting got clobbered during the upgrade), because another
 application has started showing the same problem (LibreOffice Calc
 is now
 doing the same thing GnuCash does - it opens correctly sized, but
 not
 correctly positioned). So I am going to try to research that aspect
 and see
 if there is a setting in Gnome that may be overriding the
 application's
 requested startup positioning.
