Hello,
I struggle for a few days to add a comment for a JPG image with exiftool from CMD.
C:\\exiftool.exe -comment="this is a test" test.jpg
1 image files updated
But the tool is not adding any comment.
Instead, if i add a titile, it works :
C:\\exiftool.exe -title="Hello World" test.jpg
1 image files updated
Do you have an idea what's going on ???

Yes it is.
Perhaps reading FAQ 3 (https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q3) will help.

I'm assuming you're reading the Windows property called "Comment". What Windows calls "Comment" can actually be one of three different tags. See this post (https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php/topic,6591.msg32875.html#msg32875) for a translation of Windows property names into real tag names.
In this case, Windows will read EXIF:UserComment, XMP:UserComment, and EXIF:XPComment to fill the Comment property.
@StarGeek, thank you very much ! EXIF:XPComment works wonderful for what i need.
May the force be with you
