Thanks both, I have it sorted more or less, it remains to tidy up the
various versions of the files that are in different locations on the PC.
I used Revo Uninstaller Pro to uninstall the 'active' version, Revo is
what I have used over the years to get rid of files which, inadvertently

That's probably not the file you want unless you haven't entered anything since
19 February. You had a lock on "GNU FEB 12 2019.gnucash.20210219151108.gnucash"
suggesting that might not be the case.

The trace file associated with a crash just means that GnuCash got far enough
into the program to open it before trying to load the library linked to
libgncmod-app-utils.dll. That's not meaningful.

The important thing is to make sure that you don't restore an old version of
GnuCash dlls. The most straightforward way is to leave executables out of the
backup plan because you can always download them again from their respective
sources. A bit less simple is to have a separate backup set for
OK, I'll try that, thanks.
I have the most recent version for Windows 10, afaik. Haven't recently
downloaded any update and have been using the current version for a
while, like since last q 2020. Could be a storage glitch, I suppose.
Should I make a specific backup? I have backblaze for back
You don't say what version of GnuCash, but GnuCash 4.x renamed
libgncmod-app-utils.dll to libgnc-app-utils.dll, so it seems that you have some
leftover bits from an earlier installation. Try uninstalling GnuCash with Apps
& Settings then delete the installation directory--it defaults to C:\Progr
