OK; including screenshot of all the plugins that no longer work in GIMP 2.10 that I had. Have to admit I really don't give a rat's tail for most of them, but I would like to keep ACE (yes; G'MIC can do the job, but still, I like ACE and use it more often then I would like to admit), Resynth (old version of Resynthesizer; kept it around since it handled certain things better than the new Resynthesizer), Bevel Refect Logo, and Focus Blur.
Wavelet Sharpen is now part of GIMP so it's not needed (though I use the old version quite often too with GIMP 2.8.22) I was mistaken about Wavelet Sharpen. Regardless, it works in samj's portable but not in gimp 2.10 itself. I get an error console when I launch this plugin in samj's portable (says critical error) but the plugin runs fine. Weird stuff. Again the 2 problematic dlls for all the now defective plugins appears to be only libexiv2.dll and libgraphite2.dll.
Anyone here can suggest a work a round, I would be grateful.
