Default quality keeps changing on Export Image as JPEG window

Look for the file parasiterc which holds the saved default values and delete it. Maybe something stuck in there.

Next time you export to a jpg set the quality and Save the Defaults Gimp will write a new parasiterc on exit. That works for me same as previous posts.

You can look at the file in a text editor, I do not understand the entries but by comparison, the first two entries in the long string govern quality.

example
Code:
saved quality 85
(parasite "jpeg-save-defaults" 1 46
"\70\65\56\................\60")

saved quality 90
(parasite "jpeg-save-defaults" 1 46
"\71\60\56.................\60")

saved quality 95
(parasite "jpeg-save-defaults" 1 46
"\71\65\56\................\60")

Might / might not make a difference.

Thanks for the speedy reply. I've just done that as described but when I quit GIMP and restarted, the default settings weren't automatically loaded/used........I had to click "Load Defaults".
