Dears, Greetings. I am getting the error message "No Suitable backend was found for file..." after my PC was shut off unexpectedly two days ago. Now I can't open my current accounts even though I see the backup files (.gcm and .gnucash files). Can anyone help me recover my account data? Thanks

I cannot help with the failure to open files but it might help to know what OS you are running GnuCash under. As for the 800 extra files, that depends to some extent on how often you make backups of your data in some remote location. That will help you decide how to set the length of time to keep

That is a clever trick. You could create a separate report for each security, but I suspect that could easily get out of hand. Perhaps someone else has a better suggestion, or perhaps the report could be re-configured to allow selecting the source account. David C On Mon, Mar 5, 2018 at 7:25 PM
