Installing Help file gimp-help-2.8.2.tar.bz2

Brand new to this site, and all things GIMP.

I've installed GIMP 2.8.14, and I installed Help file gimp-help-2-2.8.1-en-setup.exe. But then I saw an updated Help file, gimp-help-2.8.2.tar.bz2. I installed Bitser to open the .bz2 file and it decompresses everything, but I can't get the Help file to install. In the list of decompressed files there is an "Install" file, but it doesn't install when clicking it; it wants me to open another program.

Not sure what to do here.

Thanks,

Starkman

Given you are running Windows, you need the Windows executables from here:

Excellent. Do I need to uninstall the previous Help file? If so, I don't see it in the Uninstall Programs list.

Thanks,
