What OS is on each computer?  I'm not familiar with nextcloud - when you 
try to open the file on the laptop, it the file on a local drive simply 
synced by nextcloud, or is it on a shared network drive?  Can you try 
copying the file to a local drive and see if you can open it there?  
Also, you can try an AppImage version of KMyMoney 
(seehttps://kmymoney.org/appimage.html) in case your distro does not 
provide an updated package?
