IS there a way to install GIMP 2.10 beside GIMP 2.8 with no errors ?!

[Blighty]

I followed Rich's instructions and had no problems at all (Windows 10).

Here is a summary of the method:

1. In search box, type REGEDIT

2. Navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\GIMP-2in1

3. Delete Gimp

4. Rename Gimp 2.8 user profile (eg from .gimp-2.8 to .Xgimp-2.8)

5. Install Gimp2.10 !IMPORTANT! Use the Customize option

6. Intall to C:\GIMP 210 (and not to to C:\GIMP 2)

7. Yes, I want a desktop icon

8. Rename Gimp 2.8 user profile back to .gimp-2.8
