GIMP Version: 2.8.14
Operating System: Windows
GIMP Experience: New User

I'm not sure what uninstall really means, I simply deleted G'MIC from my C/user/me/Gimp 2.8?plug-ins folder. Then I extracted G'MIC 1.7.9 into the same folder. I have re-started Gimp several times but my 'old' version of G'MIC is active. I include screen shots. I would be grateful for any help please.

Emperors Clothes. Who is going to say it first

Your plugin folder is a mess. All those sub-folders.

Apart from that: You installed g'mic which is a stand-alone application. It does contain gmic_gimp.exe but if you use the correct windows installer for the gimp plugin it will install in the correct place which is C:\Users\your-name\.gimp-2.8\plug-ins Not in a sub folder.

Snag that David needs to look at, the 32 bit installer is broken, a zero size file


FWIW, my advice.
Look in the uninstall menu for any version of gmic and uninstall
Otherwise delete that gmic folder you have, look in C:\Users\your-name\.gimp-2.8\plug-ins and delete any gimp-gmic
Get the zip file http://gmic.eu/files/windows/gmic_win32.zip

unpack and copy all to C:\Users\your-name\.gimp-2.8\plug-ins

looks like this:

Yes; you either install or do the manual method like you did (as do I). Manually just extracting the zip file is my preferred method when it comes to G'MIC.

Thank you for all your help. Eventually I uninstalled Gimp, G'MIC, Gimp Massive and Gimp extensions,(that got rid of G'MIC 1.6) re-installed latest stable Gimp and G'MIC, bingo - all working fine The zip file option I can understand but just a step to far right now, I used the G'MIC installer. I am really grateful for your on-going help and patience
