Stan,
Many thanks to you and to Sherlock.
I've only ever used the normal installer before, but I'll try this, and assume
it's just a case of taking the most up-to-date exe from the stable releases
(gnucash-5.13-2025-10-13-git-5.13-9-ge22c406547+.setup.exe) and installing it
as normal. If not, please let me know if I need to take any special precautions
with this type of installation.
Thanks,AlanG

thing. I think your next step is what Sherlock suggested yesterday:
