There is no **full** version of Gimp, regardless of operating system, Gimp is
free-open-source-software (FOSS)

Providing you get your Gimp installer from www.gimp.org the version of Gimp you
have will be the most recent.

If you have anything called GimpShop or similar, **dump it** straight away, it
contains dubious 'advertising extras' and install the official version from
www.gimp.org

Back to the question. The reason for some menu entries grayed out

You do not have an image open

The active image is in indexed or grayscale color mode - change to RGB use Image
-> Mode

The action requires transparency - an alpha channel. use Layers -> Transparency
-> Add Alpha Channel.

There is always a reason. Not Gimp, blame the User.
