It does.Whenever anyone asks for a free alternative to Adobe Photoshop, GIMP is always the first program that people talk about. It confused me because it didn't have the. Right now they are empty folders because Windows was just reinstalled. Thank you for sharing where and what to look for to get back my user settings for GIMP.īut how does one get it all back? What I mean is if GIMP is reinstalled etc, how do I get these settings back?

If you screw-up your settings (and it is the user who does this not Gimp), delete that user profile and restore your working User Profile backup. If you update Gimp, the User Profile remains untouched. If you re-install Gimp, the User Profile remains untouched. If you uninstall Gimp, the User Profile remains untouched.
If the Gimp User Profile does not exist, Gimp will create a new default version when Gimp is first run. If you go back to post#4, the screenshot of Edit -> Preferences -> Folders shows the location of your User Profile - the first line.įor a backup, which is never a bad idea, backup that. In Windows it is usually C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\Īppdata is a hidden folder so check with to make it visible. Gimp stores your user settings in a "Gimp User profile" (03-13-2023, 10:00 PM)AngelH Wrote: Now if anyone knows how to backup my settings so when Windows gets reinstalled I don't have to figure that all out all over again, it would be appreciated. However / Wherever installed, the location should show up by running Gimp then in Edit -> Preferences -> Folders Choose a resource folder and that shows both the location of your user profile and the location of the Gimp installation. You might be using a portable Gimp which can be anywhere. Going a bit further, and using the Gimp installer customize option, you can install Gimp to some other location, maybe a second disk Which same as the GIMP user profile, is in the hidden Appdata folder. However if the 'For Me Only' option is selected it installs into C:\Users\your_name\Appdata\Local\Programs\GIMP2 Zip file ? which zip file from ? The windows download is a executable installer gimp-2.10.30-setup.exeįor the regular Windows installer from and the user accepting the one-click install it goes into C:\Program Files\GIMP 2
Quote.I downloaded from Gimp org, opened the zip file.
