Using Gimp on a CDRW i get this message every time at startup:
Unable to open a test swap file. To avoid data loss please check the location and permissions of the swap directory defined in your Preferences (currently "${gimp_dir}").
I checked where the swap directory was -> F:\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\Data\settings
Could this be another INI file problem? Any clues?

It just does that. There's no workaround.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
I think you should add that to Gimp's "Known Issues" list.
btw, there may be mistakes in the .ini's of TB and SB

I was actually thinking of dropping live support since no one seems to use it. I know I gotta update the INIs.

That's not a bad idea... I've only been using it on a CD because I bought a 50-Pack of CDRW's, way more than i need
