It shouldn't and it never did so for me. In fact, I don't think it
ever did that for anybody. I don't see a single report like yours.

There's something crazy going on with your computer and your copy of
GIMP. What happens for just about everybody else is:

1. File > Export
2. Specify file name
3. Click 'Export'
4. Contonue working on the picture.
