You are storing your GnuCash data file in your C:\Windows directory? (or sub 
thereof) That is a system directory. I don’t think the practice of storing 
personal data there is recommended by Microsoft regardless of any other issues 
or concerns with GnuCash in particular. (you have a C:\Users directory for 
personal data vs. system data)

Adrien
