Have you checked in Edit -> Preferences to see the status of two settings

1. Window Positions.

As you already do, set up Gimp the way you want it, single window mode, position
of docks, the active dock, just the way you want it on a restart.

In Edit -> Preferences -> Window management uncheck (if it is checked) Save
Window Positions on Exit then click on Save Window Positions Now.

OK that, shut Gimp down, restart and see it it makes any difference.

2. Tool Options

If you want to, a similar procedure. Set up everything the way you want Gimp to
start, font, font size, brush & size, finish of with the active tool you want.
Untick Save on exit, click on Save Tool Options now, OK and restart.

If that is not the problem, then something weird with your Windows installation.
