Yup. Total. exiftool -TagsFromFile "BigLongDirectory\DSC_0000.JPG" -Title -Rating -Label "ADifferentBigLongDirectory\DSC_0000.JPG" works just fine. How do you do all files in the LongDirectories? I.E. what is the bloody syntax for exiftool -TagsFromFile "BigLongDirectory\*.JPG" -Title -Rating -Label "ADifferentBigLongDirectory\*.JPG" Yes, the file names are the same in each directory. I don't want directories created or files moved and the documentation has totally defeated me and there are no relevant examples despite hours of reading, gooooogling, and binging. Help and thanks. :-\
Try this:
exiftool -tagsfromfile "BigLongDirectory\%f.%e" -Title -Rating -Label "ADifferentBigLongDirectory" -ext JPEG

Worked just fine. (I know EXIFTool is extremely powerful, sorry I'm unable to handle from-to directory syntax.) Much thanks for the tool and for the help in using it. :)
