How to open the image without going to GIMP inside
#2
Do you know what a file association is?

Two ways:

Enter search for association and select Change the file type screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/emjGHoD.jpg
For any particular file type jpg, png, tif, bmp ...click on Change program, choose Gimp, ok it. https://i.imgur.com/jATlcsb.jpg

or another way.

Reinstall Gimp, run the installer, choose the customise option. https://i.imgur.com/Qy75s8W.jpg
When you get to Select file associations click on Select All (and click Next until finished) https://i.imgur.com/X8nwRNQ.jpg
Clicking on a file, might open straight away or sometimes a one-off How-do-you-want-to-open-this-file. Choose Gimp, tick Always use and OK. https://i.imgur.com/fnvk5kI.jpg

However, you will get most benefit if you learn to use the Gimp Menus. One day you might want to add a second image over the first.

If you get stuck with the file associations, you can drag-n-drop into the main Gimp window.
