gimp .msi version

Hello!
Hope this is the right place to ask this question.

Some people have asked me about a Windows msi gimp version for a centralized installation procedure.

On the official site I did not find any .msi version but only the .exe version installer.

Is there any .msi official version? If not, why?
If there are any around, can we trust those version?

TIA

No.

Because the installer creator we use does not support creating .msi packages.

In general, no. We only trust what is available from gimp.org.

Michael

Many thanks for the quick reply Michael!

BTW I found these that could help someone else with the same kind of requests:
