Gimp 2.10.14 Rev 2 creates folder outside of install folder

Submitted by starshakur on November 18, 2019 - 10:03am

Hi,

i downloaded the latest version from https://portableapps.com/apps/graphics_pictures/gimp_portable, installed it and saw that Gimp creates a folder outside of it's install folder after launch.

Install folder: D:\Downloads\GIMPPortable

After launch, it'll create: D:\Downloads\PortableApps.com\Data\Fonts

Is there a file i can edit to fix that error?

Thanks.

I recently got the prompt to update my GIMP Portable Apps, so I assume it was the release version. I am getting the GIMP Portable unable to start due to gimp-2.10.exe unable to be found message.

system details:
OS version: Windows 10
64-bit
Type of Install: Upgrade
install path - C:\Users\Ray\Dropbox\portable apps 2\PortableApps\GIMPPortable

IrfanView 4.53 location of preferences INI file

Submitted by JeremyNicoll on July 22, 2019 - 6:13pm

I updated my PA frameworks copy of IrfanView four days ago, and soon found I couldn't save any updates to my preferences. IrfanView warned me of this as soon as I entered the Options dialog, saying

Your INI file 'D:\Development\Portable Apps\IrfanView\Releases\IrfanViewPortable\Data\IrfanView\i_view.ini' is read-only.

I don't even have a D drive. I think the PA packager has inadvertently left a trace of their system in the released code.

I fixed this by finding the file which specified that file path. It was in a plain text .INI fle at

GIMP Portable won't let me install to "C:\ProgramFiles"

Submitted by Jeb on May 24, 2019 - 11:34am

GIMP Portable (2.10) can't run if installed to "C:\ProgramFiles". Please fix by allowing the program to run from within "C:\ProgramFiles" by either a) copying the GIMP Portable directory to a temporary location within the current User's directory and running from there, or b) Run from "C:\ProgramFiles" if the current user is an Administrator.
