| Any way to export a lot of pictures from *.jpg to *.dds |

Hi. I'm trying to do something that seems pretty simple, but I'm not sure if it's possible to do in GIMP at all, but I really hope so.
I have an image "file.jpg". I open it with GIMP, then I go to "File", then "Export As...", I choose "DDS image" (there're two ones, I select the first one, I don't know if/how they differ from each other). Then I use the settiongs (I choose the compression - BC1/DXT1, other options are default):
![[Image: YVoUTMfS]](https://imgbox.com/YVoUTMfS)
(Sorry, my picture isn't vissible. It's on https://imgbox.com/YVoUTMfS)
After exporting I get "file.dds" picture.
So, I have a directory which contains several subdirectories each of which contains several *.jpg pictures similar to "file.jpg" (all picture are 512x512, but I think it doesn't matter). All what I need is to export all these *.jpg images to *.dds format ang get the results the same as if they were received if I exported them manually one by one as I've written above. The all exported *.dds file should have names the same as its input *.jpg files. Also, it would be nice to delete all input *.jpg files after conversion.
I've seen some scripts for GIMP, but they look pretty difficult for me, I've never used GIMP before. Maybe there's a simple way to do it in Windows command-line CMD. (Also, I could make such conversion on Linux if it will be easier, than on Windows, although my laptop with Linux isn't so powerful). Also, I've installed BIMP and tried the "Batch Image Manipulation Plugin", but I havent found the *.dds format for exporting...

| Where are preferences being stored? |

This question pertains to Windows installations in general. I'm having a problem when running different versions of GIMP on the same Windows computer. It appears to me that the same Preferences are being used no matter what version of GIMP I might choose to run. This is causing a problem when I might want to have different preferences apply to different versions of GIMP. For example, when using plugins it is desired to associate the plugin version being used with the version of GIMP being used but that does NOT seem to happen.
On Windows one might expect that storing Preferences in the registry rather GIMP specific files would have this affect. However, I haven't been able to find anything in the registry that looks like GIMP preferences. Same applies to standard file locations such as those located within the AppData folder.

| Changing template spine size. |

After reviewing one of my indi books, I want to increase the spine width from .835"/21.21mm to 0.880"/22.35mm in my Gimp 2.10.36/Windows11. I am reusing my original book template so the only change required is the spine size (more pages in the new edition). How can I best do this in Gimp? Step by step would be good.
Secondly when I open a template image as a PNG in Gimp, how can I view its actual size? Thanx, Stusamuso.
