I've got some issues that literally started this week. Last week, GIMP was running nicely, as it always had. Since yesterday, it's been almost unusable.
I have tried upgrading to 2.10, uninstalling everything and reinstalling 2.10, uninstalling everything again and downgrading to 2.8.22. What IS working: loading, saving, and exporting are fine, they're no slower than usual. Key commands for the tools work, mostly. The issues: 1) Tools lagging: let's say I use the Clone tool. After making a selection, the brush won't follow the cursor as I use the tool. When I clone over an area, the brush stays at the point where I made my selection. When I click to make another selection elsewhere, the brush jumps to the new point. Let's say I use the Free Select tool. When I click to place an anchor point, the line between anchor points doesn't follow the cursor as I move it to the next spot. The line will only appear between anchor points when I place the next one. 2) UI not responding: I cannot click on tool buttons in the sidebar with mouse or trackpad. I can't scroll up or down on the image with the mouse wheel. I also can't use the mouse wheel to change the zoom or the tool settings, such as brush size or angle. 3) Cursor not changing with tools: If I switch from Clone to Smudge, the Clone icon on the cursor will not be replaced with the Smudge icon. If I switch to another program and then back to GIMP, the issues resolve themselves momentarily. They'll start again as soon as I do anything within the program. Obviously, I can't be clicking back and forth between programs every 30 seconds. Sometimes, the problems don't all happen together. But they're all happening and none of these were an issue a few days ago. What can I do to try and address this? What's a possible cause? The computer: HP G62 running Windows 7.
