Batcher Installation

I installed the new Gimp 3.0.4 and what a surprise - no batch image manipulation any more. But I foun batcher, tried to install but my Gimp installation had no path called "plug-ins" where I could copy the unzipped folder "batcher". Can you give me instructions to install batcher manually. I have Gimp in german language but this shouldn`t be a problem
Thank You for helping! :tyspin

What OS (Windows/ Linux/ MAC) are you on?

Your plug-ins folder is probably inside a "hidden" folder, so make sure your file manager displays hidden files.

Find your Plug-ins Folder.
This is for Windows installation,
but the menu path is the same on Linux and macOS.

Go to Edit → Preferences → Folders → Plug-ins.

You’ll see a list of paths.
One of them will be your user plug-ins folder.
It's typically something like:
C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\3.0\plug-ins\

Note:
GIMP 3 only supports Python 3 plug-ins now.
If the Batcher plug-in is written in Python 2 (which many old ones were),
it will not work.
