I'm not sure but I suspect if you terminate GIMP, take a copy of Users\<user name>\.gimp-2.8 (just in case things go wrong) and then delete the contents of that folder. Then when you restart GIMP (hopefully) it should recreate the contents of .gimp-2.8 using the default settings. If it all goes wrong termiate GIMP and restore the original contents of the folder. Note that you would have to transfer and scripts, plug-ins, brushes etc that you had installed from the back-up folder to the newly created folder (when GIMP isn't running) -- programmer_ceds (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
