Hello

This is probably a color management issue. I don't think the image
viewer in Windows is color managed, so if you also disable display color
management in GIMP (File -> Preferences -> Color Management -> set
Monitor Profile to None and uncheck Try to use the system monitor
profile), does this still happen?
