Rich, your thoughts and insight are greatly appreciated!!
After I physically looked in all the usual windows system directories for that specific DLL and found none, I searched the entire drive and found 2 copies ....one in C:\programfiles\gimp2\32\bin and one in C:\programfiles\gimp2\bin
Both claiming to have been on my system since about the time I upgraded from Gimp 2.8 to 2.10.14, Curiously, one file was about 200 K larger than the other.
I replaced both with the latest available version, and that resulted in a gimp that refused to launch at all. Luckily I kept the old ones, and returned them to their rightful locations, and am back to a gimp that launches, but with the above listed error message.
Mulling it over, I'm starting to wonder if there is some problem with a function or script in gmic called "monotonic"? I haven't even looked yet....but seeing that word structure in the error message makes me suspect it is worth a closer look.
And yeah, I used the windows installer.exe method to install.
