With the clue from Peter taylor's message, this fixed the error window for me: >From the gimp-win-remote README file (which I don't think is included in the GIMP files): Save the following between the dashes to a "gimp-win-remote.reg", and remember to change the gimp-2.4.exe to the version you wish to run. Please note that to execute the new "gimp-win-remote.reg file will require administrative rights. ------ REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\GNU\gimp-win-remote] @="gimp-2.4.exe" ------ Then, in Windows Explorer|Tools|Folder Options|File Types edit the association you are using and change the command line in the field "Application used to perform action:" from "C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\bin\gimp-win-remote.exe" gimp-2.4.exe "%1" to "C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\bin\gimp-win-remote.exe" "%1" -- Bob Long _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
