How to install plugins/scripts in folders?
#2
Nothing mandatory for Gimp 2.10 Scripts in the scripts folder Plugins go in the plugins folder

Plugins can go in a folder with the same name as the plugin Example Canny.exe in a folder Canny
In my opinion this does not make much sense for single file plugins. The popular resynthesizer.exe and resynthesizer-gui.exe each need their own folders.

You can see examples of plugin-in-folder in the system C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins

It does make more sense if the plugin has dependencies, for example the gmic plugin which has about 60 .dll dependencies + a couple of sub-folders.

The plugin-in-folder will be mandatory in Gimp 3

Do you need to add the path to these in the new Gimp Edit -> Preferences -> Folders ? It might be a portable drive path issue.
