**Start and quit GIMP after you installed before you continue!**
### Prepare the Flatpak environment
*If you have previously had GIMP installed via .deb, .rpm, etc., please ensure you delete the directory `$HOME/.config/GIMP`, as this may cause conflicts with the Flatpak config files.*
1. First of all, you need to have the latest GIMP installed on your system [using Flatpak](https://flatpak.org/setup/)
2. Install GIMP Flatpak through your AppCenter/Package Manager or terminal:
```flatpak install flathub org.gimp.GIMP```
### Install PhotoGIMP
Inside the .zip file from the [releases page](https://github.com/Diolinux/PhotoGIMP/releases) you’ll find three folders (hidden on non-Windows systems as their names begin with a dot). All of these folders have to be extracted to your `$HOME` folder, overwriting everything if you already have the same files from an older installation.
The file contains these directories:
* `.icons` (which has a new PhotoGIMP icon)
* `.local` (which contains the personalized .desktop file)
* `.var` (which contains the flatpak patch customization for GIMP 2.10+)
If you just want the PhotoGIMP customization without changing the original GIMP icon and its name, just extract only the ```.var``` folder to your home directory.
## ⚙ How to Install (others)
Since it’s just files, the only thing you need to do is to copy all the files that reside on a particular folder from this package `/.var/app/org.gimp.GIMP/config/GIMP/3.0` to your GIMP’s configuration folder on each particular system, overriding the existent ones.
**Start and quit GIMP after you installed before you continue!**
The new icon needs to be set manually.
### Ubuntu Snap
Configuration folder: `$HOME/snap/gimp/47/.config/GIMP/3.10/`
### Other Linux or Unix(-like) systems (.deb, .rpm, etc.)
Configuration folder: `$HOME/.config/GIMP/3.10/`
### macOS
