Just a note to all Windows users who re-install all/everything at the drop-of-a-hat.
Gimp (all versions) keeps the settings in a Gimp profile folder. For Windows and Gimp 2.10 it is: C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10
If you have/had Gimp 2.8 then there is C:\Users\"yourname"\.gimp-2.8
This does not get removed when Gimp is un-installed or re-installed. The settings that are in force remain. see: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Your-G...l-settings
Trouble with tools: First thing to try is Edit -> Preferences -> Tool Options and click Reset Saved Tool Options to Default Values
If that does not work then the Full Monty:
- If you still have a Gimp 2.8 profile, disable by renaming
- Disable the existing Gimp 2.10 profile by renaming.
- Run Gimp 2.10 and it will make a new default basic Gimp profile.
- Move resources scripts / plugins / brushes / fonts (slowly, testing as you go) from the old saved profiles to the new one.
Go one step further, Set Gimp 2.10 up the way you want it, then in Edit -> Preferences, the three sections Tool Options / Window Management / Input Devices, each have a tick box Save xxx on Exit untick and click Save xxx Now
When finished all of that OK to leave preferences & save.
