Create keyword from the file name, all name till first underscore

There should be no difference in Windows as long as the config file is properly activated.

What is the result with the -v3 option when you try this in Windows?

Phil, as i told you before and you saw the result in previous post, config file is properly activated

C:\Windows\system32>exiftool "-keywords<myname2" -v3 C:\EXIF\PDFS\
======== C:/EXIF/PDFS/CESPI-REC_20000000_TXT.pdf

This is exactly what would happen if either the config file isn't active or XMP:Keywords doesn't exist.

What do you get with this command?:

exiftool -a -G1 -keywords -myname2 C:\EXIF\PDFS\

This is the result Phil.

C:\EXIF>exiftool -a -G1 -keywords -myname2 C:\EXIF\PDFS\
======== C:/EXIF/PDFS/CESPI-REC_20000000_TXT.pdf

OK.  XMP:Keywords exists but MyName2 doesn't, so the proper config file isn't activated.  You had this working in your reply #19, so something must have changed.

This is back to FAQ number 11 to figure out what is wrong.
