I do not know if you looked at that little video, it has zero views.However, still do not know your full story. Center of the layer depends if the layer is the same size as the canvas or if the layer is perhaps smaller.
Same size as the canvas.
Easy, set up 50% guides Image -> Guides -> New Guide (by percent)
Then with View -> Snap to Guides on and elliptical selection (expand from center/fixed aspect ratio 1:1) click on the intersection of the guides and pull out the circular selection.
Layer smaller than canvas
Make a selection (somehow) of the layer. I use the fuzzy select with maximum (255) threshold for this. Use whatever you want.
With elliptical selection tool (expand from center/fixed aspect ratio 1:1) click in the layer. The elliptical selection fills the layer, click and drag a handle and the selection becomes circular, centered in the layer.
Another video for you to (hopefully) watch showing the above.
https://youtu.be/5XcZ3YmqJFI this 3 minutes.
Edit much later: Just wondering if it is a language issue. Expand from center does not mean center of layer. It is the center of the ellipse, the first point you click on.

Thank you. I did watch. But after rewatch it, it still says it has zero views.

Installed 2.1 but an error.."unhandled exception" :(
from the log:
[attachment=1622]
...etc
Any ideas?
Thanks.. and only just realised this 2.1 was out !!
Hmm, just checked 2.9.8 and the same deal pretty much:
[attachment=1623]
2.8.22 is unaffected though
:huh:
RE: Release candidate #1 for Gimp 2.10 is out! - Zero01 - 04-01-2018
..seems to crash at the Looking for Fonts stage.
[attachment=1624]

(probably a red herrring lol)

I do not think it will be a red-herring.
I tried out both 64 bit and 32 bit versions in a (very clean) Windows 7 64 bit virtual machine and both opened ok.
The 32 version opened ok in a 32 bit Windows 7 virtual machine.
Very probably a bad font.
bty it is a monster: 64 bit folder is 720 MB.
RE: Release candidate #1 for Gimp 2.10 is out! - Zero01 - 04-01-2018
OK thanks, well, as I wasn't sure which font was causing a problem, I deleted them all (to the Recycle Bin) but still the problem persists.
This behaviour began when I started up 2.9.8 earlier so obviously it can't be specific to 2.1.
Apart from AppData/Roaming is there anywhere else fonts are kept?

Could be in the font cache.
see https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Windows-Gimp-loading-fonts-on-each-startup-possible-workaround
disable, let gimp make a new one.
Otherwise - do not know.
RE: Release candidate #1 for Gimp 2.10 is out! - Zero01 - 04-01-2018
OK thanks, I shall try this.
EDIT: Didn't work. Thanks for the help though, appreciated!
