Though G'MIC does give you some very nice stuff .....

I don't think it's actually working because there is no GMIC menu.

My folders on Gimp 2.4.7 definitely show GMIC "plaforms".
File -- Preferences -- Folders -- Plug-Ins --
C:\thepathto\gmic_gimp_qt\platforms
But there still is no menu that says "GMIC".

You have to ADD the G'MIC folder. Maybe your version of GIMP
is too old to recognize the new G'MIC.

Maybe I should load the latest Gimp as mine is different.

I use GIMP 2.8.22 "Portable", though there's nothing portable
about it.

I had to download an older version of G'MIC via archive.org,
as I'm on XP, but that shouldn't be a problem for you. G'MIC has
dropped support for XP and does not allow you to access archived
versions. Weird.
I can't find a GMIC menu.

There is a menu for
Filters -- Artistic -- Clothify
Filters -- Artistic -- Oilify
Filters -- Artistic -- Apply Canvas
All of which work.
There is no "Brushify" though.

I guess I don't need GMIC because Clothify and Apply Canvas are defaults.
I don't know why the GMIC menu won't show up though.

I prefer MANUALLY copying the G'MIC files (as in the second video) to
a new folder I create called GMIC under \Plugins and add that folder
manually in settings (as in the first video). I do not allow Internet
access.

Note G'MIC appears faded (you cannot use it) in the menu until you
actually load an image.
