For those who do not know, these are slybug plugins. The plugins work as their name suggests.

Duplicate to another Image -> Copies an image (with groups and masks if there are any) into another image or makes a new image.
and

Layer via Copy -> Copies a selection to a new layer
Layer via Cut -> Cuts a selection and makes a new layer of the selected area.

thanks rich2005 for your comment and explanation,
I'm not going to install it anyway, I can do the edit I want to make in a different way.
thanks again,gimper66

That is a sensible decision, nothing you cannot do with regular Gimp 2.10 tools. The slybug plugin(s) are really for Gimp 2.8 and Gimp 2.10 has more copy/paste options that the older version. The only very slight advantage with the slybug plugin is no need to copy the selection before pasting.
