It might be possible to set up a Windows batch file for this - (I don't know)Ģ) Large capacity USB drives are cheap these days, Have a duplicated separate samj gimp portable for each 'extra' drive letter. AFAIK the launcher.exe does not accept switches. How you would use this with the samj gimp launcher is the problem. Useful in cases where plugins paths or machine specs may be different. The gimprc file contains a record of your preferences. Use an alternative gimprc instead of the default one. Apart from main computer and laptop, how many other computers/ drive letters might be used ? Other ways that might be possible without too much danger.ġ) Have multiple gimprc files one for each 'extra' Drive letter gimprc-G gimprc-H. ![]() Looks like that method is a bit dangerous for you. It could also be the pluginrc file or the sessionrc file. ![]() It does mean having to set up your bespoke paths again. The problem will be a setting in the gimp user profile, the 'Preferences' folder.įirst thing I would try is rename that modified gimprc to a backup and run gimp to create a new default. When I got that weird effect, I think I just reverted back to a basic samj portable gimp, the same as you get with a first-time run. Always difficult for me since using old Windows virtual machines + USB is very slow. The Preferences folder structure included in the samj portable is the best place to add your resources. (5) A quick check for a plugin, a little one I use which was added to the gimp-extras/plugins folder. Running Gimp portable in another machine those paths are scanned, false ones are ignored but the folder on the USB is recognized. You can edit gimprc to include "possible" drive letters that might occur when using a different computer (4) Use a decent text editor such as notepad++ If you inspect the gimprc file that is created then you see the extra path (3) You can still add additional paths to folders, I am using a gimp-extras/plugins (/fonts / scripts) on the USB drive, obviously these take the Drive letter that is assigned (2). When the portable Gimp is launched the 'launcher' (1) queries Drive letters etc and sets the Gimp variables accordingly. One of those files is gimprc which holds the paths you write when adding folders using Edit -> Preferences -> Folders I only mention this because same as a regular Gimp it create & writes settings somethingrc files there. Much the same as a regular Gimp except it includes the equivalent of the Gimp user profile, a folder Preferences. More time spent today in a more methodical manner.įirst of all, the monster that is the samj portable Gimp for Windows. I did get that strange loading everything in terminals effect and do not know why. I played around for some time on this yesterday. When I close this window, it opens the G'MIC and another window as shown in the image:Ĭlosing the windows in the image above, it appears:įinally the Gimp appears, but it is already clear from the displayed menus that most scripts / plug-ins have not been loaded. While I don't close the GTK+Code Demos window, the Gimp doesn't continue its initialization. Several screens appear in DOS mode (they open and then close) and at the end there are three windows. Even so this problem is repeating itself now when having to use the Pendrive in the laptop. ** - This problem happened before in the past, but at the time I thought it was because I tried to use Gimp from USB Flash Drive on a PC that already had Gimp portable installed on the hard drive, and that it might have created some file conflict.īut yesterday I used the USB Flash drive on another PC, which doesn't have Gimp. I don't know if there are other folders created by the Gimp itself in more (other) places on the laptop.Īnother serious problem, which happened again today when I was using the usb flash drive on the same laptop as always, is that **NOW the Gimp bugs at startup. When I use the USB Flash Drive, everything is on that device (folders with brushes, plug-ins etc), as far as I know.īut I found a folder on the PC that must have been created by Gimp himself - C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\GIMP\2.10\CrashLogĬ:\Users\username where you have the.
