gimp-2.10.2-setup.exe --no-admin

Gimp Windows installer should have an option to install without admin rights.

I know, there are portable apps, but why not use the original installer?

Cygwin installer has an option

-B --no-admin Do not check for and enforce running as Administrator

Same should work for Gimp installer on Windows. With -B installer should ask user for a user writable target folder.

For a discussion about Windows installers without Admin rights see

Thanks, Juergen
