What does gimp portable actually need access to for it to run properly?

Also, is there any way with a standard GIMP install to stop it placing folders in C:\documents and settings\[user]

Portable GIMP 2.2.12 has been working well on my Windows XP machine. Today when starting the program, Panda Internet Security 2005 Platinum popped up a dialog reporting that it had neutralized spyware. Portable GIMP then stopped loading with a dialog reporting "gimp-2.2.exe - Unable To Locate Component" in the title bar, "This application has failed to start because intl.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." in the text portion of the dialog.

The Panda popup says the adware it neutralized was "Adware/DesktopMedia" in the location "...\temp\nspf.temp\system.dll"

I've copied the gswin32c.exe to the ..\Portable GIMP\App\gimp\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins folder, but I still can't open up PDF's with GIMP.

I get a trio of error messages:

PDF document Message
Error starting ghostscript: Failed to execute child

PDF document Message
Could not interpret ...

GIMP Message
Opening ... failed:

Plug-In could not open image

with u3 there is a launch window for all my installed apps and it would be great to have GIMP in there with the rest of them.
Can GIMP be converted to do this?

is there any chance i can make gimp run faster? https://portableapps.com/node/1548 this works great but only in previous version

What differences are there between GIMP and gimp portable, in terms of functionality?

Also, is there a way to change the default save path?

Hello,

first thanks for PortableApps, its a greate job u do.

I work long with PortApps but now i have a problem but no solution.

I will start PortGimp with Parameters but don´t know how.

Normal Gimp i start like this:
./gimp-2.2.exe -c -i -d -b '(script-fu-glossy-logo "$1" 100 "Eras" "Shadows 2" FALSE "Shadows 2" FALSE 5 "255 255 255" FALSE "Electric Blue" FALSE "Electric Blue" FALSE "Parque #1" TRUE TRUE 8 8)'

but how under PortGimp?

I tried this:
PortableGIMP.ini
[PortableGIMP]
AdditionalParameters=-c -i -d -b '(script-fu-glossy-logo "Test" 100 "Eras" "Shadows 2" FALSE "Shadows 2" FALSE 5 "255 255 255" FALSE "Electric Blue" FALSE "Electric Blue" FALSE "Parque #1" TRUE TRUE 8 8)'

gimp 2.2.12 multilingual does not start up if configured in this non-default directory structure.

Directory with GIMPPortable.exe (PortableApps, for instance)
	+\Apps\
		+\GIMPPortable\
			+\GIMP\
			+\gtk\
	+\Data\
		+\GIMPPortable\
			+\settings\

Following GIMPPortableSource\readme.txt this configuration should work. I get an obviously incomplete information message saying: 'was not found. Please check your configuration'

When starting Gimp 2.2.12 error-messages are occuring "There is no media in the drive. Please insert media".
With pushing the go-on-button (serveral times....), Gimp is starting.

That error - message occures when starting from harddisk as well as when starting from usb-drive.

Does anyone know a solution for that ?
I am using the "multilingual version"

Thanks,
Peter

I have installed GimpPortable2.2.12en_us three times.
And each time I had to create and define the user directory becuse there wasn't any premade / defined.
Or else I couldn't make or use my own brushes, patterns, etc.
