If only/mostly on PNG, does using a low compression level (0-3) makes thing faster or slower?The exporting itself is fast, just takes forever, until the dialogue opens. Same issue with jpg.
The usual culprits:
- A large number of files (thousands) in the directory where Gimp saves the files by default. Easy to check by yourself.
- A lingering network drive that no longer really exists, but is still considered available by Windows. A reboot could fix it, a way to check this hypothesis is to temporarily shutdown all your network connection (Wifi, Ethernet), and see of this improves things (by making the network checks fail a lot faster).
- There used to be an old bug with BIOSes that fake a diskette drive so maybe you can check your BIOS for such a legacy/compatibility setting.
PS: if forever=10minutes, this is the TCP/IP general time-out.
Thanks, was disconnected mapped network drive in my case. In case someone has the same issue - just right click on it in windows explorer and select "disconnect"
