[Gimp-user] Can't browse directories in GIMP 2.10

Done more than a few tries in a Win 10 VM and it looks like the last released
Windows installers have this problem

These are the ones that implement 32 bit plugin compatibility

gimp-2.10.0-setup-1.exe and gimp gimp-2.10.0-setup.exe

The original gimp-2.10.0-x64-setup.exe work ok.

You could purge the Gimp 2.10 installation, delete the GIMP 2 folder and the
Gimp 2.10 gimp profile and reinstall with the old installer

https://download.gimp.org/mirror/pub/gimp/v2.10/windows/gimp-2.10.0-x64-setup.exe

or just hang on a few days, I am sure the Windows packager will issue an update.
