I've spent few hours trying to find out how to copy data from "Description" field to "Title" on 26 000 images in one folder but without any success. Could anyone help me to solve this problem?

Did you look at the Copying Examples in the application documentation?

The command will look like this:

exiftool "-title<description" DIR

where DIR is the folder name.

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).
