Don, Thanks for your reply and good to hear that you succeeded. I would not have expected that a Registry Cleaner would do the job, but nonetheless congratulations.
Because I was curious about what registry entry the installer looks for I downloaded some NSIS-source files of the Windows-installer for GIMP. At SourceForge I found a file with a name of gimp+gtk-install-script-20061018.zip. 2006 sounds pretty old to me, but it was the most recent I could find. So I downloaded it and opened it and in gimp+gtk.iss I found a function called EnablePython. This function looks in the Windows registry for the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.4\InstallPath. In my Windows registry I could only find a 2.5 and a 2.6 for Python, but newer GIMP installers might be looking for a newer Python version in the registry. Then it looks in the directory that is listed in the InstallPath for a sub-directory called Lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0 to check whether PyGTK is installed. When this is found, one can install GIMP-Python. Perhaps one could also use a registry monitor to see what exact Registry key a more recent GIMP version is checking. Or perhaps also newer installer-sources can be found online. -- Greetings, Martijn http://gimp.startpagina.nl _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
