Critical TIFF bug
GIMP version: 2.10.18
Note: bug reporters are expected to have verified the bug still exists either in the last stable version of GIMP or on updated development code (master branch).
Operating System: Windows 10 1909
Package: Website installer
Exporting layered tiff creates undeletable file
Please describe your issue with details. Add screenshot or other files if needed. Across two wipes and reinstallations of windows, each time I've exported a tiff with layers that could not be deleted even by force except by wiping the whole drive
Reproduction
Is the bug reproducible? Always
Reproduction steps:
- Create a project with multiple layers
- Export as a TIFF with any compression (I happened to use LZW)
- Be unable to delete file
…
Expected result: The file is saved and can be deleted
Actual result: The file remains, and can't be wiped out, especially if you exported it inside your desktop so Linux distros can't reach it
