I just clicked the orange button marked with "Download GIMP 2.8.20 directly".
The I tried both
https://download.gimp.org/mirror/pub/gimp/help/windows/2.8/2.8.2/gimp-help-2-2.8.2-nn-setup.exe
and
https://download.gimp.org/mirror/pub/gimp/help/windows/2.8/2.8.2/gimp-help-2-2.8.2-en_GB-setup.exe,
none of which is working. So I installed the US language manual, which is fine
by me as of now.

Do I follow the same procedure regardless of language version?
