So I either have to reset my PC, or use a complex method. But I understand people who want to keep their settings. So, here's a suggestion: how about an uninstaller that asks you if you want to keep your settings? That way, people can choose if they want their settings kept or not.
For a skilled user, a Gimp profile (where your settings are kept) has plenty of useful data (added brushes, palettes, gradients, scripts, some recorded tool settings, etc....) and erasing all that stuff blindly would be very damaging.
There are several "Reset to factory settings" buttons in "Edit > Preferences".
You can also make Gimp always start with sane settings: Managing tool options and window positions
