Did you make sure that this box was checked,
while exporting your image as animated gif?

Are you sure that you're exporting your image,
with the file extension of .gif and not any other file extension?

That doesn't seem right.
What version of Gimp are you using?

Can you post your image as an .xcf file?

You should have the Export as option.
Is this a portable version and where did you get it from?

I'm curious as to what the issue was?
Can you expound on how you figured this out?
