An easy way to compile and install GIMP and other great Free software on your Mac is by using Macports. The installer allows you to choose from a large directory of packages. To install gimp using Macports, you simply do sudo port install gimp once you have Macports installed.
Homebrew is similar to Macports and provides packages (aka formulas) to install, either by compiling them from source or by using pre-made binaries. There are indications that there is now a formula for GIMP, installable with: brew tap homebrew/cask && brew install --cask gimp.
Fink is a package repository that offer mostly precompiled binaries. It provides the apt-get command known to e.g. Debian and Ubuntu users, and installing GIMP is as easy as sudo apt-get install gimp once you have installed the Fink installer.
If there's no binary package, then fink install gimp will compile GIMP from source.
You may have to do this a few times before you reach the actual exe file location. Using the latter method, the location turns out to be C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Programs\GIMP 2\bin\gimp-2.10.exe.
Thanks everyone for the help.
I uninstalled the Microsoft Store version of GIMP and installed it from the official GIMP website.
The location is, like @afre wrote, C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Programs\GIMP 2\bin\gimp-2.10.exe .
Please help when I use my lenovo pen that came with my lenovo flex 5 with certain apps like GIMP (works fine with paint) it does not register strokes. It will let me click in a spot but when I press down and move the pen around it will stay in that spot. I need to be clicking my pen button (left click shortcut) for it to register these strokes. I have windows 11 and ive heard turning off windows ink helps but there is no way to do that on windows 11. Please lmk if you have a solution
Some of the windows 10 settings guides I found didn't work for me so I thought I'd share. The defaults work with most apps I use but Gimp needed some configuration. My tablet went from unusable to must-have

By default, dragging is delayed while windows waits to see if you're holding for the right-click to hold feature. This makes painting in Gimp incredibly frustrating and Wacom should really disable it by default! In Wacom Tablet Properties, click Mapping and turn off Use Windows Ink.
Gimp is nice, but the one thing that drives me nuts is that everything floats around in front of each other, often hiding the main window and forcing me to minimize all open windows until I find the one floating window that I am looking for.
I'd like to have the floating windows docked along the edges of that main window, the way practically every other application works. I know this floating thing is one of the things that make Gimp special, but it's not the kind of "special" that I like... I don't have a huge screen, so it quickly gets too cramped. And I often use Gimp briefly, multitasking with other apps, so the many Gimp windows are annoying.
Image windows: Each image open in GIMP is displayed in a separate window. Many images can be open at the same time, limited by only the system resources. Before you can do anything useful in GIMP, you need to have at least one image window open. The image window holds the Menu of the main commands of GIMP (File, Edit, Select...), which you can also get by right-clicking on the window.
The following sections walk you through the components of each of the windows shown in the screenshot, explaining what they are and how they work. Once you have read them, plus the section describing the basic structure of GIMP images, you should have learned enough to use GIMP for a wide variety of basic image manipulations. You can then look through the rest of the manual at your leisure (or just experiment) to learn the almost limitless number of more subtle and specialized things that are possible. Have fun!
At least with the GIMP 2.10.x installer, using CMD to do gimp--setup.exe /? revealed that the installer can be started with an install-directory pre-defined. Presumably this is for people who are doing regression-testing or such and want multiple versions, but this can also solve your issue.
To test your compiled installation, I found nothing better than movingthe whole tree (in my case $HOME/w64) into Windows, because librariesare dynamically linked, then run $HOME/w64/bin/gimp-2.9.exe underWindows.
If Gimp 2.8 exists, advise a clean installation, uninstall Gimp 2.8, rename the Gimp 2.8 use profile (.../gimp-2.8) to disable. Gimp 2.10 tries to copy existing resources and not all scripts/plug-ins work with Gimp 2.10.

GIMP can work with virtually all current image formats, such as BMP, GIF, JPEG, MNG, PCX, PNG, PSD, PS, PDF, TIFF, TGA, SVG, and XPM. In addition, its fragmented interface is particularly useful, since you can move the floating windows at any time to adapt the layout to your preferences. Or, if you prefer, you can return to the classic layout, which makes the interface as similar as possible to other programs with which you're more familiar.
I have gimp 2.8 on Windows 10 and this is what solved the small tool icons problem for me:open This PC > Local Disc (C:) > Program Files > GIMP 2 > bin,right click on gimp-2.8,open Properties,click on Compatibility.On the settings options select: Override high DPI scaling behaviour.Scaling performed by,scroll and select System,Apply,OK
I use 4 workspaces. When I open GIMP in a workspace everything seems to be normal, I have the main GIMP window, the toolbox and the layers-window. I can use GIMP the way it is intended, no problems.
But when I switch to another workspace, the toolbox and the layer-window are there too, NOT the main-window, and they are in all workspaces.
In fact these windows seem to be made "sticky", but there is no way to switch them to "un-sticky", I even can't move them to another workspace (there's no option to do that), this I can only do with the main-window which is only in the workspace I started GIMP in.
Another thing: when I move the main-window to another workspace all Gimp-windows disappear from the other workspaces, everything seems to be completely normal as it was before, GIMP is only in 1 workspace, but from the moment I open the workspace containing GIMP the toolbox and the layer-window are back on all workspaces ....
I can't minimize the unwanted windows, I can only set them to top, but then the same window (toolbox and so on) in all workspaces are set to top, also in the workspace the main-window resides ..
At the moment I do this before switching from GIMP to another workspace, but it all worked normal before ...
What me really annoys on Gimp is under windows that i have to right click in task bar for getting a fresh image window into view. The rest is fine besides not being able to edit HDRI in its original color depth at actual version.
Gimp toolbars are not "windows" in that sense. They communicate with the WM through Gimp, hence the WM has little control over them. For example, you won't see any of the toolbox windows in the window list (if you have one on a panel). This used to be different, i.e. all toolboxes were separate windows that cluttered the panel, hence the new single-window approach.
We want to add the folder extracted from the GMIC zip archive. It's named gmic_gimp_qt by default, but the name could be different. Locate thefolder and add it to the list. Then, restart GIMP (close and open again). On next launch, G'MIC will beavailable under Filters as G'MIC-Qt.
Hi @SolidCapo ,
Gimp is available to install from the Manjaro extra repositories, I do not know why are you using the Flatpak package.
You can have all the panels in one window by checking in the GIMP menu Windows - Single windows mode is the last option on this section.
By default, GIMP shows three windows. The toolbox, an empty image window with the menu bar, and a window containing several docked dialogs. The windows can be arranged on the screen as you need them. If they are no longer needed, they can also be closed. Closing the image window when it is empty quits the application.
Help provides access to the internal help system including the extensive GIMP User Manual. The package gimp-help needs to be installed. This documentation is also available online in HTML and PDF formats at Translations into many languages are available.
