I recently had an old platter based 1tb drive fail. It was my D: drive. Gimp was on it.

Now when I attempt to reinstall Gimp on my new Solid State Drive "F:" the wizard doesn't offer location for install options.

Anyone else experience this?

I have no idea where the instruction for installing gimp on the now missing "D:" drive is being derived from... Even deleting the REGEDIT folder for GIMP did not stop the "pre installed at D:" issue.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is this post about a registry entry: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Cannot...4#pid37254
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\GIMP-2_is1

...and this one where Gimp exists https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Instal...1#pid40321

Guessing that although the Gimp installation folder is gone, there might still be some an entry in the Windows uninstall menu. If there is try and un-install and Windows asks to remove the entry.

This seems to work, worth a try: Gimp is on Drive E  The registry entry looks like this:

Delete that entry, run the Gimp installer, Customise Option, Choose a location.
