Description Don Cac 2018-05-31 14:26:10 UTC 
I have restarted windows several times and have reinstalled Gnucash from a fresh 3.1 download.  Nonetheless, the problem persists.

Gnucash opens and runs, but does not open a window.  There is only a blank desktop on the screen.  I know Gnucash is running because keyboard commands operate normally (e.g., control-F brings up the "find Transaction" window).  Also, Gnucash shows as running normally in the task manager.  

I have been using Gnucash 3.1 for some time with no problems, but this morning for the first time I have no window on my desktop.  It ran fine yesterday with no changes to my system between yesterday and today.

Thank you !
