Error starting using provided GIMPPortable.ini

The \Data\settings folder does not exist until GimpPortable is run without the .ini file. This first run will create the settings folder if it is not there if you run it without the .ini file.

The error is as follows:

GIMP Portable | PortableApps.com
D:\%pathtoGIMPPortablefolder%\Data\settings was not found. Pleas check your configuration

You can also create a settings folder manually to resolve this if you're using the ini file.

Must run once

Simple answer: You must run it once before using an INI. About 1/2 the apps work like this.

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

Yeh

I was going to say that, but couldn't remember if it was just mine, or yours too Biggrin

Anyway, if it did work with custom directories, you'd have to specify a DefaultDataDirectory option in the INI and it would add a lot more code.
