Can't see GIMP windows

I have tried all of the suggestions I have found. I really don't want to pay Adobe any more than I have to!  Rolleyes

People were using Gimp 2.x for so long that most people were just updating this folder. I seems easy for something to go wrong on an initial Gimp install. 

As you are computer-savy you maybe able to locate your log files when Gimp is started and see where it halts. 'Gimp --verbose' from a terminal should also show you any errors.

If that doesn't work I  suggest installing another Gimp3 version, possibly an earlier one just to write these essential files into your home account.

I have not tried this yet. I will run it in Powershell and get back here.
