Some directories are not visible (nor acccessible)

Hi,
Having used GIMP for years and never seen anything like this. Maybe not a GIMP problem but not seeing it with any other program.

Problem: When using File -> Open, the "Open Image" window pops up but some of the directories on my computer are not visible and I can't find a way to navigate to those directories. If I tried right-click on files in one of those directories (with any other programs or file managers) and select "Edit with GNU Image Manipulation Program", I got "Opening 'FILEXX' failed: Could not open 'FILEXX' for reading: No such file or directory" Error Box.

If I copied the file to any other directories (that are visible in GIMP), it opens fine.

Like I said, never had this problem before and not seeing this problem with other program. OS: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS,
GIMP 2.8.22

Thanks.

Hi, i also have same problem...

When using File -> Open, the "Open Image" window pops up (all files) but directories on my computer under C: and D: and USB G: are not visible and I can't find a way to navigate to those directories.

If I tried right-click on files in one of those directories (with File Explorer) and select "Edit with Gimp", it opens fine.

OS: Windows 8.1 GIMP 2.10.0

Best regards
