I installed the Windows 2.6.0 build gimp-2.6.0-i686-setup-1.exe, ran it, closed it then installed gimp-help-2-2.4.0-eng-setup.exe (it identified the location I had put GIMP 2.6) In Preferences I set: Help system to "user manual: Use locally installed copy" (text below says "There's a local installation of the user manual" and Help browser to use: Gimp help browser. If I click on the [Help] button on the preferences pane (or any where else attempt [F1] or Shift+F1) I get popup warning: > The GIMP help browser plug-in appears to be missing from your installation. > You may instead use the web browser for reading the help pages. Clicking [Use Web Browser] changes parameter "Help browser to use:" to "Web browser" but does NOT open anything in my default browser (Portable Firefox 3) I assume this is user-setup-error and would normally request help in gimp-users or gimpwin-users but since release is so recent thought I'd ask here. -- Regards ...
