GIMP v.2.10.30 (on Win7 x 32 bit)
When running the file gimp-console-2.10.exe (in the default installation directory on Windows "C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\bin"), the console opens after about 10 s delay with the following error message:
And it does not matter whether the file is executed with simple rights (without "Run as administrator" and the UAC prompt does not appear) or with elevated administrative rights with UAC confirmation.
The same behavior occurs when a batch script is used to execute a Fu script, which in turn is called via the file gimp-2.10.exe.
There are no other problems with accessing the Internet with any other program.
Just tested also with the latest version of GIMP (v.2.10.32, auf Win7 x32-bit) and it behaves the same.
Why does GIMP access the Internet every time it is started (with TCP/IP data streams like www.gimp.org, router-default.apps, openshift4.gnome …) and how to turn this off? In settings via the GUI edit menu is nothing to find like automatically update or similar activity to be switch of.
Thanks
