Gimp 2 - gimp 3 filters? - WhiteKnight - 03-19-2025
Hello, I just updated gimp from gimp 2.xx to gimp 3. In gimp 2 I had added filters, now in gimp 3 they are not there, how do I put the filters I added from gimp 2 to gimp 2?
Thank you.

Basically, most will not work. See Ofnuts post

Since you are using Windows, you can install and run both Gimp 2.10 and Gimp 3.0 Edit: Which plugins do you use most? Many have equivalents in the gmic_gimp_qt plugin which has a Windows Gimp 3.0 version.

Thanks for your response...
I use enhance : Heal selection is one of the most I use that is no longer there. Yes I can use both versions; but not at the same time (unless I'm missing something)

The equivalent in the gmic_gimp_qt plugin http://www.gmic.eu is one of the inpaint filters. An explanation of use here: https://patdavid.net/2014/02/getting-around-in-gimp-gmic-inpainting-content-aware-fill/
I have to confess I do prefer heal-selection / resynth version.
You can run both if you open one version, then start the other using the -n switch (for new instance)
This an example Win 10 with the shortcut modified and Gimp 3 / Gimp 2.10
