A search brings up similar problems where the usual advice, disable the gimp profile / removing Gimp and reinstalling does not work. (I was going to suggest that as a last resort. Purge all traces of Gimp and gimp profile and reinstall)

This thread is interesting: http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=...=20#p90119 Worth checking that from the beginning

After much messing about, appears a new mouse driver had some effect. That could point back to the recent Win 10 update specific to your computer or to some third party application recently installed.

otherwise beat.

I've completely purged my computer of any file relating to Gimp several times now, and to no avail.  I also haven't gotten a new mouse...  I did find something while trying to start Gimp on a different profile on my computer.  This little message popped up.



I doubt this actually has anything to do with the problem, but I thought I'd share this just in case.  I'm really starting to loose hope.
