Hi, I hope some can help me with a basic problem. Down loaded Xgimp onto iPad Pro but every time I put my IP address address and user name in, it comes up error. Removed and reloaded Xgimp several time but get the same error message. Jay in Sheffield UK

I am new to gimp. I have many drawings and family photos I want to edit. I am convinced gimp is the bomb. I want to learn how to use it. I have the manual. I want to start my learning how to "restore" the program to the "out of the box" condition, clean and put back to "factory settings" so to speak. I certainly want the latest version. Can anyone help me on this site to "fix" or replace my gimp ? I have already messed up mine. I tried to simply uninstall it and when I opened the new one, it was the old one. It took me a while to learn and understand why and how this happened. I can try again using an uninstall program and this may work, but there has to be a siimpler, more sensible way to do what I am trying to do. I can't be the only person here who wants this capability.

@ David Rosenthal - Retinex is still there but it's not under filters.

This filter is found in the image window menu under Colors → Tone Mapping → Retinex

What happened to the Retinex Filter ? It's gone!

Why is getting the user manual so hard?
