Created attachment 373167 [details] Screenshot showing attempt to Save As in path with spaces Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 GnuCash 3.3+ If my .gnucash files are in a path that contains no spaces (example: C:\Users\Myname\desktop\gctest\test.gnucash) Save As works properly BUT If my .gnucash files are in a path that contains spaces (example: C:\Users\Myname\desktop\gctest with spaces\test.gnucash) Save As does not work. GnuCash displays an error message: ------------ You attempted to save in <something>\Users\<myname>\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash or a subdirectory thereof. This is not allowed as GnuCash reserves that directory for internal use. Please try again in a different directory. -------------
GC 3.3 (not 2.6 as in original submission). Sorry!
This seems to be working in Gnucash 3.7 on my machine as I can do a saveas to C:\Users\mdforbis\Desktop\gnucash data files\filename.gnucash with no issue. Please try a later version of Gnucash and see if this has been resolved. Thanks!
Hi Nick, does your problem still exist with a current GnuCash version?
Matt Forbis, This is reported to be working in a version 3.7. Thank you for taking the time to report this bug. However, you are using a version that is too old and not supported anymore. The GnuCash developers are no longer working on that version, so either this bug has already been fixed or unfortunately there will not be any bug fixes for the version that you use. The current stable version of GnuCash is 3.10. In the (hopefully unlikely) case you discover the same bug in the very latest stable version, do not hesitate to REOPEN it again. Also, feel free to file other bugs or enhancement requests that you find. Thank you very much!
