Maybe that's all that is available. Can you post the specific text of the dialog here? That may help in determining what the issue is. GnuCash does say it supports Windows 8. One possibility is that GnuCash is built as a 64-bit application and you have a 32-bit version of Windows. You can follow the instructions here to verify if you have a 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows https://softwaregroup.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115012567728-How-to-check-if-Windows-8-and-8-1-is-32-bit-or-64-bit I'm not sure if GnuCash for Windows is built as 64-bit only. Can someone using Windows confirm this?
