I downloaded and ionstalled the latest Gimp 2.10.22 in windows 64.
However now I find all my scripts -Fu and python plug in are greyed out.
How do I restore all these scripts and plugins

I am sorry I found out that this was because I had not opened any imgae in Gimp. Once I opened an image everything was OK.

Happy for you Smile

Another reason this could happen is that the script directory has changed over an upgrade. Leaving this note so that someone might find it helpful at a later point.

A good chance that there is something in your existing user profile causing the problem. I have a Gimp 2.10.22 installed in a Win10 (VM) that works as expected but I did purge the old Gimp before installing.

There are built in script-fu and one or two python plugins that you can use to verify that something 'works' Open an image and use Filters -> Decor -> Old Photo for script-fu then Filters -> Web -> Slice for python.

If they work and your user installed script/plugins do not, then disable (rename) the existing user profile to C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP-backup. Start Gimp to make a new default User profile. Add a script and a plugin, see if they show and work.

Of course it might be something completely different....
