patdavid: I have just down that. I tried using the 32 bit msi under my main gimp directory. that did not work. I tried using the 32 bit msi and letting it use its default directory after deleting the one that I had made. I have tried using the 64bit msi and installing in the default directory. Every time I used the gimp preferences dialog to add that directory to the plugins dialog. Either I get nothing in the filters menu OR I get that popup dialog that says the app will be closed.
I just give up. I think you guys have made a GREAT plugin but it should not be this hard to install or require me to change operating systems to do it.
