Good morning, Harvey. Welcome to GnuCash. To answer your question - you can simply delete your unwanted file using Windows Explorer - I’m a Mac user, so I’m not sure where a Windows machine will store its GC files by default. It will be called XXX.gnucash, where XXX is the name you chose for it when you first set it up. Alternatively, you can use File—>New to create a new one, and ignore the first one in future. However, your problem with the missing opening balance can be resolved without deleting anything. See https://lists.gnucash.org/docs/C/gnucash-guide/cbook-accounts1.html for instructions.
