Since then, exiftool has become the go-to tool for working with metadata at the command line due to the vast array of file formats and types of metadata it supports. Will let you know if I find any solution. Exiftool is a command-line utility, technically a Perl library written by Phil Harvey first released in 2003. My program now tries to use exiftool from c:windows, but when it finds an exiftool.exe in c:windows (or actually SYSTEMROOT if windows has been installed in another folder), it should simply refuse to use it. They just don't have some of the functionality of v5 that I've grown used to! I also tested exiftool.exe via a command window and it works properly by itself. Maybe I need to resurrect a virtual machine (VMWare perhaps, because I don't want to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro).īTW, version 4.27 and also v 3.42 (both with exiftool 9.99) worked.
I'm going to poke around using Windows tools such as Resmon and ProgExp/Progmon but don't really hold out much hope. I tried Compatibility analysis etc, tried running as Administrator (seemed to help at first but now no use) and also tried changing permissions on "exiftool.exe" in C:\Windows folder. Other times it just crashes right from the start. (This saves you typing the full path names of the files/folders. Drag and drop files and folders on the Terminal window. Type 'exiftool' followed by a SPACE in the Terminal window. I cannot get v 5.16 (using ExifTool 9.99) to run consistently - sometimes it starts properly once or twice, then the crashes start. Follow these instructions to run ExifTool: Launch the Terminal application from your /Applications/Utilities folder. Aargh! I installed Windows 10 yesterday (over Win 8.1 on an Acer laptop) and the only program that is giving me consistent problems is ExiToolGUI.
