This a quote from portableapps which uses 32 bit Gimp (as more universal) and equally applicable to the regular installation.
quote We have reverted to GIMP 2.8.22 as of May 21, 2018. GIMP 2.10.0, 2.10.0-2, and 2.10.22 (sic) Windows 32-bit binaries have all been broken. Opening, saving, and exporting files does not function in these builds. unquote
There is a Windows 32 bit Gimp 2.10.2 from samj bottom of this page https://samjcreations.blogspot.com/2018/ that I understand works.

But for an older computer, Gimp 2.8.22 is a good bet.
Use a local mirror, save the planet, save bandwidth (although I believe bandwidth has never been cheaper)

Edit:
There are a couple of videos on first time setting Gimp 2.8 up: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Gimp-Installation shown in Win 10 but equally applicable to Win7.
Sounds very promising. Thanks a lot for your very helpful reply.
