Hi

I am trying to remove all metadata : XMP,EXIF,FILE ...(a "white list" approach) to place my own metadata.
what is the command for it?

Thank you

#1
-All= will remove all metadata except APP14 Adobe segment.  You can use --TAG to exclude tags or groups from the deletion.

See Documentation under the --Tag section.

See this thread for reason behind APP14 Adobe segment.

Edit: Fixed segment name and added thread link.
"It didn't work" isn't helpful. What was the exact command used and the output.
Read FAQ #3 and use that cmd
Please use the Code button for exiftool output

Please include your OS/Exiftool version/filetype
