GIMP 2.10.20 flame plugin crashing

My guess (only a guess) is settings inherited from the previous 2.10.12 installation.  First try: disable the Gimp user profile which keeps settings between installations.
Rename  it to (maybe) C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP-backup  Start Gimp up, it will create a new default 'vanilla' userprofile. Check the flame plugin for errors.

If you still get that error, very rarely needed but a new  Gimp installation. Uninstall Gimp. There are always bits remaining with the Windows instalation so delete C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\ (often requires a Windows restart).  Delete the Gimp user profile. Reinstall Gimp 2.10.20 as a brand-new installation.

Hi,

I now did all the mentioned things.
1. renamed the old user profile - error still persists
2. uninstalled GIMP and deleted the user profile folder
3. complete new installation of GIMP 2.10.20 - error still persists

Nothing helped so far. I have no idea…

Now, after a complete crash during the startup of GIMP, flames plugin is running as expected. Very weird!
Let's see, how it develops…

Thanks for now.
