2 intsances of GnuCash running is certainly possible on Linux also. I do
this deliberately with different files open on occasion on Linux Mint (with
no observable Problems other than sharing the configuation files).

Dear Peter,
Thanks for the tip; that fixed starting GC from the Whisker menu.
However, I had also setup Windows-like shortcuts (Launcher items on the
xfce desktop) which included the file name, so I had to change those as

Sounds to me like the prefs are not being set properly.
was that GConf on GC 2.6.x?
although slightly odd for my theory that the recently run list has managed to
get the required file in entry 2 but not entry 1.

Maf.

Sorry, I just see now you state the old file is in position 1. That would
indeed indicate to me that is the one open. (and most recent)
Are you certain you don’t have more than one instance of GnuCash running? (I
know it is possible on Mac, not sure about Linux)

Hmm...
Have you tried double-clicking the file and see which one you get?
Can you successfully use File > Open to get the correct file to work in?
As for shortcuts with ‘command lines’ look into editing the .desktop file for
Gnucash. (I think it is under /usr/share/local, but it has been a

Dear Adrien,
Thanks for the tip, but I already tried that (several times). GC still

Open Gnucash, it will open the last used book.
If it is the old one, then go to File > Open, and choose the new book.
Close Gnucash.
When you re-open Gnucash, it should still open the last used book, but this
time, that will be the new one.
