That's the error message I get right after clicking on 'File/Export as ...' try to export a file to the desktop.
Small print of error diagnostic:
Error opening directory '/Users/<myuid>/-
Desktop': Operation not permitted.
Interestingly, after clicking on 'OK' in the diagnostic pop up window, it clears and I am able to export the file to the desktop.
So at this time, it's an annoyance.
I tried uninstalling/reinstalling Gimp 10.2.22 rev 3 to no avail. It is true that I download and install apps to an admin account on my iMac, and then run apps from my non-admin user account. Old habit that may no longer give any form of security, but other 3rd party apps not seeing this problem (yet).
Couldn't think of a search handle to find others with the problem, but if anyone has seen complaints about this already, please point me in the right direction. Otherwise I'm open to any ideas about why this is happening.
