I had the same issue, and read that using a gimp version put out by partha.com
helped. Sure enough, I uninstalled the current 64 bit version of gimp I had
downloaded from gimp.org. I re-installed a version from partha.com (version
2.8.4), reinstalled the dds plugin and have no issues now.

You shouldn't have to download some non-standard version of Gimp in order to
install the plug-in! Why doesn't this work with the current version of Gimp?
Why have the developers not changed their .dll to whatever the newest version
of Gimp uses?

Okay. I resolved the problem, I think.
I found where libgimp-2.0-0.dll is located. I extracted the zip file to the
same directory as the dll - ie. C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\bin.
I executed it and I didn't see an error, but nothing to let me know that the
execution was successful. :|. So, I don't know if it has installed properly
or not.

In fact, after I installed it I ran GIMP and could not load the .dds file that
I wanted to load. It doesn't appear to be working at all!

Okay. Sorry about this. But, it DOES work. I couldn't find it when I had the
"all images" option selected, but I did find it with "all files" and when I
opened it, it did actually work.

I tried copying the DDS plug-in into the folder the libgimp file is in, but
that didn't work for me. Instead I copied the Libgimp file it wants into the
plug-ins folder and then copied the dds application file as well afterwards and
now it works for me.

I know this is old, but Google brings you here first for this last error: "The
application was unable to start correctly". So, this seems like the best place
to put the solution. The solution is found in the comments
http://registry.gimp.org/node/70. The problem is you have the x64 version of
Gimp. The DDS plugin only works with the x32 version of Gimp. On Partha.com you
can find the x32 version. Place the DDS.exe file in the folder mentioned above
and run Gimp (not the exe). Gimp should have the option to load DDS files now.

Do not try to extract the dds.exe, There is no need for that.
Try downloading one of these two;
x64 -
https://code.google.com/p/gimp-dds/downloads/detail?name=gimp-dds-win64-3.0.1.zi
p&can=2&q=
x86(32 bit) -
https://code.google.com/p/gimp-dds/downloads/detail?name=gimp-dds-win32-3.0.1.zi
p&can=2&q=
and place "gimp-dds-winXX-3.0.1.zip" into your gimp plugins folder and extract
the contents of the zip.
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\
This should fix the problem.

Thank you so much! I just downloaded the 32 bit version of the plugin and
extracted it into my gimp plugins folder and it is working perfectly! Thank
you!!

Does not work here.
Tried to place the dds.exe in the Bin folder. Then it's missing a whole lot of
other dll's. They are found in the Frameworks folder. Ended with coping them
all over to the Bin folder. Ran the exe file and this time...
Nothing! Nothing at all happens and still not able to export as dds :-(

I did it by simply extracting it to the folder not copying and pasting

had the same issues as above (running windows7 64bit OS) - in the end I just
combined all the advice above: installed the 32bit version of GIMP, extracted
the DDS.exe batch plugin (gimp-dds-win32-3.0.1.zip) in the plugins folder, and
I also installed the 32bit useful plugins (Gimp-2.8.1-Plugins-32bit.exe) which
i downloaded from Partha.com
Not sure which bit worked, but I can now see "Batch Process" listed under
Filters in GIMP!

for 64bit I had to copy the 64bit plugin to the plug-in folder
Then I copied ALL dll files from bin to the plugin folder (got sick of
executing it many times getting dll errors)
Then ran the dds.exe as admin.
Opened Gimp and did a open file and select all files, not select all images.
This was after over an hour of fighting with it. Now works fine with this
method.
