[Fixed] Gimp 2.8 rev 2 not closing

Updated Gimp 2.8 rev 2 from 2.8 and 2,74 Application runs well I close app and the background window will not close. I have to go to task manager to end the process gimpportablebgwindow.exe This is after I close the program from the menu within the program.

Running Win 7 64 bit full admin rights with 8 gb ram

Will try to uninstall app and reinstall it without it updating previous versions to see if issue persists

Have now totally removed Gimp from drive and reinstalled cleanly, issue no longer appears. Can only assume that issue was with me over-installing or updating from previous versions?

Add-on

That's from the Background-window add-on, the requisite entry wasn't added to installer.ini. I no longer have a copy of the add-on on my system - John, can you do a rev for it?

[EDIT] Unrelated: I believe we need to add recently-closed.xbel=%LOCALAPPDATA% to FilesMove

Fixed in 2.8 Rev 3

The installer now ensures the old background window plugin is removed.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
