That last part, "area filled with background color", is a telltale characteristic of not actually having an 
alpha channel on the image when you did the erase ... did you double-check that?  Because if your steps are 
correct then something else must have happened along the way.... 

(I also run GIMP on Win 10 and have yet to find any problems.)
