It might be that you got a flatpak or a snap version of Gimp that launch in different ways.
From here: https://tutorialforlinux.com/2018/04/03/...-gnulinux/ linux lite can use a PPA.
You can add https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+...buntu/gimp - follow the directions there to add and update
Then for an install it is
and that should get you a Gimp 2.10.36 which will open from a terminal if you want that way.
edit: As often, I did not read the post correctly and Ofnuts is correct. It is unusual for no .desktop file if Gimp is installed from a repo. Did you install Gimp or is it already there in LinuxLite ?
