1. http://growcut.com/help/index.html?/help/Introduction/Requirements.html

"In order to use .8bf plug-ins you need to download and install PSPI module:
http://www.iki.fi/tml/gimp/pspi.html
Then, don't forget to configure PSPI's plug-in folder to the one where
you put GrowCut.8bf file."

2. http://tml.pp.fi/gimp/pspi.html

"The Windows package includes just pspi.exe. Put it in your GIMP
plug-ins folder, typically \Program Files\GIMP\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins."

In other words,

1. Install PSPI.
2. Unpack GrowCut somewhere.
3. Configure PSPI to tell it what GrowCut file is located.
4. Restart GIMP.
