    Are you able to open batches of RAW files using this as well? Or would I have to go through Darktable first, save them all as something else and then put them as a batch into GIMP? I just noticed that the stock photos were jpg so just wondering. I'm starting a mentorship with a photographer and if I could open RAW as a batch that would be amazing!

    @@DavidLeBlanc _because David's Batch Processor hadn't been updated in years._ Why do you need an update if it works just fine? On my distro, DBP works fine and is even way faster than BIMP, so an update of DBP for what? ;) I should give to BIMP that if you want, you can use your Script-Fu plugins which is a very nice plus over DBP, but a lot of them can produce errors. In all cases, if these scripts are helpful sometime (up to 20 or 30 images), I would say "Use the right software for the right job"... When I have hundreds or thousands even hundreds thousands pictures to batch process, I use XnConvert, that's a true image batch processor, which can process thousands images per minute and has way more options than BIMP or DBP (yes it's Fully free for *non-commercial* use, and for commercial use it's so cheap that's truly worth the price) ;)

So it should look something like this: C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Local\Programs\GIMP 2 If you're using a windows setup, try to locate the file location in your Programs folder. :)
