Can you use the File->Open menu to open file types other than GIMP's native 
format? If not, you have a problem with the installation of the plug-ins 
providing support for other file formats.

If you can open other file formats from inside GIMP the problem is just with 
file associations. You can set the associations you want by telling Windows 
what program to use when it opens a given file type.

Pay attention during installation to see if it asks you whether you want the 
installer to set file associations.
