Hi Zbyma72age,
Thank you for testing out, we use the old Google Nik Collection that is still out there on the internet. The "HDR Efex Pro 2" alone has an issue, that it cannot save the processed image back to the input image, you can also test it by running the program directly:

Code:

C:\Program Files\Google\Nik Collection\HDR Efex Pro 2> & './HDR Efex Pro 2.exe' MY_INPUT_IMAGE.jpg

The "Save" button not work, only "Save Image as...", but it breaks the workflow of this plugin, unfortunately.
One stupid workaround is, you could input the path "C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp\tmpNik.jpg" by "Save Image as..." manually and click "Save".

Regarding the issue with "HDR Efex Pro 2", I updated the script (v3.0.3) so that it handles the output of this program automatically.

Side note: you will still have this problem if you configure your ~/Documents path other than windows default setup.
In that case you can either use above workaround or specify your real Documents path in the script here additionally then try again in GIMP (readme with troubleshooting section is updated).

I still do not achieve a positive result.
Maybe the fault lies with me because I did not specify that I have Windows 11 64bit 24h2
and that I am not a computer scientist, but an ordinary user of GIMP 3.0.2-1
