start_gimp-2.10.bat - Installation

[Krikor]

rich2005 you make it seem easy which is a headache for me. 

Possibly this will be my last attempt using Samj-Portables versions (which I have been doing since the beginning of version 2.10).
Possibly upgrading from the standard version will be easier (I hope).

** Clarifying that I only opened one of the versions when the other had already been closed. Either one or the other version is always in use. **

1- I installed version 2.10.36; OK
2- I copied data from my version 2.10.28 and transferred it to version 2.10.36 (Patterns, brushes, plugins, etc); OK

3- When I opened version 2.10.28 again I noticed that part of its settings were modified by the steps above. For example, the path to my plugins and scripts was no longer included in this version.

4- I had to re-enter my version 2.10.28 settings lost during steps 1 and 2; OK

5- Open version 2.10.36 again; OK
6- Open version 2.10.28; OK

What I noticed so far:

A small slowdown in version 2.10.36. A little close to what I reported when I tried to install version 2.10.32 in the past

The Pattern preview in version 2.10.36 is horrible, it's impossible to know what pattern it is just by looking at it.
       

Ever since I failed to upgrade in the past - 2.10.28 to 2.10.32, I have been traumatized by upgrades.
It seems that before (in the past) it was easier to update a version of Gimp).

And from what I'm seeing, for now, this version 2.10.36 is not worthy of taking the place of 2.10.28. But I just made the change and will take more time to make a decision.

rich2005 thank you very much for your help!!
