Where does it go?

I am now using 2.10.30 and it doesn't have any but is telling me I can install RawTherapee or Darktable to open Raws
I have downloaded them...where do I put them?

You just install, same as any separate application, one or the other. There is a section in preferences Image Import & Export that you should check to see if it shows.

Chances are your Gimp 2.10.22 came from Partha and that version includes various extras including nufraw plugin, which personally I like. That is not working too well with Gimp 2.10.30, at least not mine, and the built in plugins that are provided link to either Darktable (DT) or RawTherapee (RT).

That means installing one or the other. And it (supposed to) work like this.

In Gimp open the RAW image same as any other.
That opens the image in  DT/RT where you can also 'tweak' the image if you want.
To get the image back into Gimp, close DT/RT and that opens in Gimp as a 32 bit image.

DT is quite large application RT a bit smaller, IMHO a bit over-the-top. Horrible interface. A shame the Gimp developers are hooked on them.

I will check in my Win10 / Gimp 2.10.30 VM and see if I can 'borrow' Partha's nufraw, see if it works.
edit: Got to open, but horribly slow, and ended up not-reponding. Could be the limited resources of the Win10 VM I use but truthfully not worth the effort.
