1. First, if you have had Gimp 2.8 version, go to your user directory;  C:\Users\Hanne\.gimp-2.8 and re-name this folder to, .gimp-2.8.old. This will avoid Gimp 2.10 to clone this folder.

2. Uninstall any version of Gimp (Gimp 2.10, Gimp 2.10.4 or Gimp 2.10.6). After you uninstall Gimp, go to:  C:\Program Files\GIMP 2 and delete that folder. (Even though you uninstall Gimp there is a few folders that won'r uninstall and you have to delete them manually)

3. Go to: C:\Users\Hanne\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10 and delete this folder.

4. Go to: C:\Users\Hanne\AppData\Local\GIMP and delete this folder also.

5. One last part. Beside your Window Start program there is a Window search, click and type: Run. After the Result pop up "Run" click and a small window and this will open any Documents, file, program etc...

6. type on this window "regedit", we're going to delete all Gimp file from this directory. Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, click on the dropdown arrow and then select SOFTWARE. Click on the dropdown arrow and you will find all your Gimp. Delete all the Gimps folders.


Install Gimp again and it should work with no problems. Try it.

Hi Pocholo

I am so sorry for this late answer but I have been sick with eyes and a right computer arm.

And then sorry for mismanaging this forum. It seems I always do something wrong when I want to answer, so I get your post copied in. I don't know, what I do wrong. Please tell me. Normally I am used to fora.

I will now try to follow your recipe to reinstall GIMP. I will let you know what happens.

Best regards,
Hanne,
Denmark
