Hey all,
I've recently downloaded the latest version of GIMP (2.10) since I've used the program before and have a new project I need it for. My device I've installed it on runs on windows 8.1 pro. The export function are not working. The steps I follow it are as follows.
1. File > Export as
2. Select the desired destination
3. Choose my file format (in my case *.tif, *.tiff)
4. Export
After this it's like my pop up window freezes. I cannot click anything else on the window and the only way I can close the window is by pressing the red x in the top right. There is no other window that pops up giving me further export options.
Can someone please help.

Is it just tiff format that is the problem? Can you export any other format (png jpeg..)
Did you have any third-party plugins such as ufraw installed in the previous Gimp 2.8 ?
There was a recent post where left-over files from the old Gimp 2.8 installation caused a problem

Hey Rich2005,
This problem I'm experiencing is with all the export formats. Not just tiff. Also, I doubt I have any third-party plugins as I download the GIMP 2.10 onto a new laptop that had not had any other version previously installed on it. So I literally just downloaded it for the first time onto this device today.

That is going to be difficult to diagnose. Possibly an AV or similar interfering.
Worth a try, the Partha Gimp 2.10.2 installs separately from the gimp.org version, might by-pass any problem.

So I've tried downloading it for this site. It installs but when I want to run the program it says it is not compatible with my device and I should find a version for my system. I do no understand why it says this though because I am infact installing the one for windows...
