Gimp will not open
#1
Hi, I have a new install of Windows 10 Pro x64. I installed Gimp 2.10, but when I go to launch it, nothing happens. I started the gimp console and I got these error messages:

Code:
GEGL-Message: 12:47:31.075: Module 'C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gegl-0.4\ff-load.dll' load error: 'C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gegl-0.4\ff-load.dll': The specified module could not be found.

What do I need to do to fix this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, as well as restart my PC.

I do not know why Windows users insist on installing / reinstalling anything over and over again. Error messages tell you something is wrong and you need to track the problem down.

This seems to be a recent problem linked to nVidia graphics hardware. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/issu...ote_675560

As I understand, there is a Windows Gimp 2.10.14 version released 1 January as a fix. Worth a try.

If that does not work. Go back a version to Gimp 2.10.12 Not much difference between the two versions for regular users.

Great, thanks. It seems the download link for Windows Gimp 2.10.14 worked.
