I recently upgraded my iMac (12.2.1) to Version 2.10.30 of GIMP.  When I tried to open the app, I got a window that said "Verifying Gimp-2.10."  The verification never completed running and I still have the window.  I subsequently downloaded the app again, but this time the screen to transfer the app to the applications folder froze.  I managed to copy the file to the applications folder manually.  I ran the app, another verification window opened and quickly completed and the app runs fine.  BUT, now I still have the original verification window and I cannot get rid of it.  Clicking on the "x" at the end of the progress bar does nothing.  There is no red (nor green) button to close the window.  any suggestions would be appreciated.

Maybe ask whoever authored the "verification" app, because when it runs, Gimp is just a passive blob of data so it has absolutely no responsibility in the outcome.

I assume the verification window will disappear when you reboot.
