This is not really suitable for General Questions, but we do not yet have a section for Obscure.
I would not worry too much about Gimp and excess files and registry entries. Unlike a lot of pay-for applications mostly uninstaller information.
There are utilities to monitor an installation. Installing Gimp 2.9.8 to a drive other than C: results in about 40 registry entries and a few temporary files.
Monitoring just C: a utility WinTools report: all the files (.dog) zipped - just plain text. (everything else goes to the installation drive)

Unpacking Gimp 2.9 - a bit easier than Gimp 2.8 which contains both 32/64 bit versions.
Unpacking not using the installer. Recommend UniExtract as a front-end to Inno.
This one: https://github.com/Bioruebe/UniExtract2/releases
Unpacking the Gimp 2.9.8 Windows installer from gimp.org
Still a lot of files - 11000+ not quite a straight gimp installation but can be sorted.

Extracted to a folder on the desktop (as Winusers tend to do) All there but for you to sort out. https://i.imgur.com/BLXvzWK.jpg
