Hi,
I'm trying to analyze some ".doc" files (MS Office Word Dococumet ) with exifTool on Windows machine and always the same error is returned:


Error while attempting to call Image::ExifTool::Get64u
Missing right curly or square bracket at Image/ExifTool/TagLookup.pm line 2662, at end of line
syntax error at Image/ExifTool/TagLookup.pm line 2662, at EOF

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /loader/0x279e60c/Image/ExifTool/Writer.pl line 17.

Thanks !

Your exiftool installation is corrupted.  Follow the uninstall instructions here then re-install.  Or if you don't have the most recent version, downloading and installing it should also fix the problem.

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

Hi Phil,

I downloaded the last 9.45 windows executable version this morning ad it is affected by the problem, the 9.44 version still works fine

Thanks

Ok according to your documentation removing C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Local Settings\Temp solve the issue

Thanks
