Is there a way to set a default folder for opening and saving files? For one reason or another I have to reopen Gimp maybe a freeze in Gimp or my computer has to be booted for some reason.
Every time I open Gimp it wants to go to recent files and then I have to navigated down through a file tree to get to the folder that contains my files. Then I have to remember to navigate once again to save a file to the same file folder or files end up where I don't want them. Once I do it once in a session it remembers for the rest of the session.
Can I set this up to remember the same folder I use for all of my Gimp work? I haven't found anything in edit preferences.

Last night I decided to install GIMP 2.10.28 from the Panda Jim PPA.
Thanks to all the information and files provided by Rich, it was a straightforward and simple process.
I now have a fully working installation with the latest GMIC.

A plug-in I'm developing (in pythonfu), which does batch processing on multiple xcf files, performs several times faster when I use ~3 threads compared to when I use all my CPU threads (32) or some good percentage of it (24). Not sure why, I guess either the RAM or SSD drive is choking when I use too many threads.
Right now I can control the number of threads by going in Gimp's preferences but I would like to keep it high when I use Gimp's interface and low for my plug-in, so I would need a way to change or override it from within the code of my plug-in, so as to not do it manually every time I use it.
I didn't find a config file where this could be changed via text replacement, nor did I find any command for it.
Also I can't do it by forcing the entire plug-in to use less threads because it contains a progress bar which needs some CPU power in order to not freeze.
Is it at all possible ?
