Just downlaoded the latest portable version again for testing before posting this.
From: https://portableapps.com/apps/graphics_pictures/gimp_portable
I was trying to use Batcher, a python written addon, updated for GIMP 3 already. And installing it won't show up in the portable version but will show up in the installed version. Tried couple times.
I looked up the plug-in browser of each version and screenshoted each but can't upload here, sadly.
When typed "Python" into the search box of said browser, only "Python dictionary" showed up in the portable version.
But in the installed version, I will also get "Plug-in example in Python 3" & "Python Console". Does that matter?
And mostly importantly, how do I "install" it?
And will that be added in later releases?

Within this version GIMP 3.0.4 portable, two files need to be updated, then python will run again:
C:\PortableApps.com\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\App\pygimp.interp
python=PYTHONWDEFAULTPATH
python3=PYTHONWDEFAULTPATH
/usr/bin/python=PYTHONWDEFAULTPATH
:Python:E::py::python:
C:\PortableApps.com\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\App\gimp32\lib\gimp\3.0\interpreters\pygimp.interp
python=C:\PortableApps.com\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\App\gimp\bin\pythonw.exe
python3=C:\PortableApps.com\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\App\gimp\bin\pythonw.exe
/usr/bin/python=C:\PortableApps.com\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\App\gimp\bin\pythonw.exe
/usr/bin/python3=C:\PortableApps.com\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\App\gimp\bin\pythonw.exe
:Python:E::py::python:
You only need to update the first one (GIMPPortable\App\pygimp.interp) as follows:
The other file will be created on launch with the proper paths even if it is missing.
I've confirmed that this gets Batcher working.
I'm hoping to post a revision with this fix tomorrow.

Thanks for posting this, JoATC_User. I don't know how I missed this when doing the file updates for 3.0.

Thanks a lot, to both of you!
This issue is fixed in today's release of GIMP Portable 3.0.4 Rev 2
