This could be caused by a bad installation.  Try following the uninstall instructions (https://exiftool.org/install.html), then re-install.

I did a search in the forum and found this thread with a possible solution to this problem (https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php/topic,2630.msg11624.html#msg11624)

Here is another thread with the same problem (https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php/topic,3241.0/all.html)

yep, Phil. The "search"-button up in the right edge, probably doesnt work as estimated. Thes search result for  "Can't locate PAR.pm" ?.. nothing. Thats why.

And yes, it was the directory-problem. The common install path in XP for command-line tools was in  "C:\Windows\System32", because, no path modifications needet.
;D exiftool works ! but in Win7, please from "C:\Windows\"

I'm glad this solved the problem.  Yes, I had trouble with the search too -- I think it may have to do with the punctuation in this phrase.
