Title: Re removing particular keywords fro jpg tags
Post by: reddwarf4ever on August 17, 2022, 09:15:31 AM
Hello, I need to remove 3 keywords from jpg tags, have several hundred jpgs. I understand this can be achieved via the CL, but do I need to adjust the instruction to make it work recursively? Also could I do this easier using the GUI version, I understand there is a new version 2.0.1
Thanks

This GUI is unsupported and has been unsupported for nearly 10 years. See the Stickied thread (https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=4553.0) in this subforum. Do you mean jExifToolGUI?  If so, try asking in this thread (https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=11355.0) and the author of that program should be able to answer it.

Phil has written only the command line tool.  All GUIs for exiftool have been created by other people.

It's a completely different GUI written by a completely different person.  It's up to you which GUI you want to use, but Phil and I don't use the GUI so we can only guess at what to do.
