If you’re using GIMP, you might get a message saying libgimp-2.0-0.dll not found when you try to run it. Without this file, the software won’t run, so let’s see how can fix it.
How can I fix libgimp-2.0-0.dll error on my PC?
Before we start, ensure you’re not running plugins directly from the installation directory, instead run them from GIMP.
1. Create a GMIC subfolder
2. Reinstall G’MIC
3. Reinstall GIMP and the Extension Pack
Be sure to remove all its files, including the Extension Pack and GMIC. You can use uninstaller software to do that, or you can use the manual method. Once removed, install GIMP again.
Where do I put the Libgimp 2.0 0 dll?
The file should be located in the GIMP installation directory:
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\bin\C:\Program Files (x86)\GIMP 2\bin\
If the libgimp-2.0-0.dll is not found on your PC, GIMP won’t be able to start, and in most cases, this issue is caused by problems with the GMIC plugin on the GIMP installation, and a quick reinstall usually fixes all the issues.
