Where is Gimp 2.10.30 hiding in WIN 10?

Gimp stores your user settings in a "Gimp User profile"

In Windows it is usually C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\

Appdata is a hidden folder so check with https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help...windows-10 to make it visible.

If you go back to post#4 , the screenshot of Edit -> Preferences -> Folders shows the location of your User Profile - the first line.

For a backup, which is never a bad idea, backup that ...\GIMP\2.10 folder structure.

Please note.
If the Gimp User Profile does not exist, Gimp will create a new default version when Gimp is first run.
If you uninstall Gimp, the User Profile remains untouched.
If you re-install Gimp, the User Profile remains untouched.
If you update Gimp, the User Profile remains untouched.

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.
