line 9 installation error msg - GTBE - 07-27-2025
please note there is a 'typo(?)' on line 9. Getting this error after installation and opening GIMP:
Error while parsing 'C:\Users\myUN\App\Data\Roaming\GIMP\3.0\controllerrc' in line 9: unexpected character ')', expected string constant - fatal parse error.
checked it out and line 9 is (mapping)).
ty. still working on plug-in installation for BIMP so this may or may not fix things for me (BIMP is insisting I have a 2.0 connection: error: invalid GIMP pplugins folder C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\3.0\plug-ins\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins)

BIMP doesn't work with Gimp 3.0.

Yeah, BIMP is for Gimp 2.8 / 2.10 (it does state that on their web site) and the Windows installer created the folders even if they did not previously exist.
Unlikely that BIMP will ever be updated for Gimp 3 but there is a Gimp 3 python plugin for batch manipulation - Batcher.
Works in a different way from BIMP but more flexible https://github.com/kamilburda/batcher
