[Gimp-user] GIMP SWAP Folder not honored

[stormy <forums gimpusers com>]

On Windows 10, uninstalled 2.8.18, and reinstalled 2.10.6, however, the SWAP &
Temporary folders, in Edit-Properties->Folders, do not appear to be honored.

Set the Temporary folder to F:\tmp and Swap folder to F:\swp, restarted GIMP,
and PC...

however, no matter what, GIMP still goes to either:

c:\Users\myuser\.cache\gegl-0.4\12056-shared.swap

c:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\gegl-0.4\12056-shared.swap

That "C:" drive is low on space, only few GB, and drive F has a TB free :)

I've reinstalled many times, and removed all possible files from directories,
and registry as per various urls online, however, no matter what, each new
re-install, gimp ignores the folders settings, and writes directly to the above
locations... any ideas?

Stormy.
