The enter tags field usually shows what tags the current brush has but the (None) looks like you haven't got a brush selected so I don't know why so many there, did you enter them?

No I didn't enter them teapot which is why I assumed they must have come categorised with gimp. Thanks for the reply. Showed up on me again today so I just deleted that brush tab. If it shows again tomorrow I will follow through with what you said.
OK, I see now that I misunderstood what the (None) near the top of the dialog means.

The tag settings are help in the file C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\tags.xml Delete that and Gimp reverts to defaults. It will write a new file when required. Delete, restart Gimp.
The tags that you see, Basic - Fun - Media etc come from the folder name containing the brush. That also applies to your own brushes, if you put them into folders.
Thanks for the information Rich. I already organise brushes, gradients etc. into appropriate folders/directories so the tags come from them due to learning from helpful posts you have made before that are much appreciated.
Unfortunately that doesn't work for fonts (at least on the version of gimp I'm running) so I enter those tags by hand but not via the GUI interface, I edit the tags file and keep my own version to revert to so as not to loose my edits. It's not a method I'd recommend though.
