Title: exiftool.exe is running 300x in the background
Post by: Plop4 on July 18, 2021, 09:07:38 AM
I used exiftool.exe on 300 files.
It seems to have done its job.
But... Now, in taskmanager, there is 300x a running exiftool.exe proces!
This must be a bug?

Without know how you did this in the first place, it's not possible to answer this.

Exiftool doesn't create a process for each file it reads and it exits completely once done.  Something else is happening on your end.
