Description Rich 2004-12-28 00:33:36 UTC 
Win Gimp version 2.2.0

The FAQ on the installer page indicated that this error message may occur due 
to card readers attached to the system.
It occurs during start-up at the point of 'Plug-In initiation', and when you 
try to open a file from the file menu.
I have no card reader on my system, but do have an Iomega Zip Drive (drive I: 
on my system).
By testing the access to all the various drives, I found that by simply 
putting a Zip-Disk in the IZD (what was on the disk seemed to make no 
difference)prior to starting the program, eliminated the error messages.
It would appear that the program is trying to access this particular drive 
during startup and file access. May just need a command line change.

No, the program isn't trying to access it, it's a known Windows bug.  Is your
Zip drive a USB or Firewire device?

I am going to mark this report as a duplicate because we have been through this
several times before and are quite certain that it is not caused by anything
wrong in GIMP.  Feel free, though, to add comments -- they will be seen.

The Zip drive is an internal drive, and is connected to a Promise Technology
Ultra ATA/100 Controller PCI card.
