Read the article in the previous post. The link to the pspi.exe plugin is gone but you can get it here:
http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=14444#p198723
As far as I know that is the last 1.07 version, nothing more recent. It is a 32 bit plugin
pspi.exe goes in your Gimp user plugins folder C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins
You need a separate folder for psplugins. Run Filters -> Photoshop Plug-in Settings to add the path to that folder.
Edit: An example of setting the path: https://i.imgur.com/jVQ1l6G.mp4
Note: pspi.exe is an ancient plugin. Do not expect newer PS plugins to work. Some old .8bf plugins might work. Here is a 2006 Redfield plugin from my archive. When working the .8BF plugins show in the Filters menu.

You might want to consider the gimp_gmic_qt plugin http://www.gmic.eu as a substitute. Easy to install, it has hundreds of filters. Maybe a little work to find the effect you want.
