On the one hand, I (unfortunately) agree with your inference that it is probably some unusual setting (somewhere). On the other hand, my mint 22 install is only 3 weeks old, and the only change that I can think of was to install the en (i.e. english?) gimp language packs (whatever those are).
(Semi)SOLVED- Experimenting, I made gimp the DEFAULT *.png image browser. Then, in xnviewmp : open with, instead of choosing gimp-2.10, I chose associated browser. The one downside to this is that this approach will not open multiple files at once. However, in the infrequent times that I have to do that, I can live with having to close the gimp error message popup.
