Hi,

Is there a signed version of exiftool.exe? If not, can a digital signature be added in a future release?

Thanks!
Rim

P.S: Would it also be possible to rebuild the exe file using these flags? /FIXED:NO /NXCOMPAT /DYNAMICBASE

"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

Thanks, I guess I have my answer now for the digital signature...What about rebuilding exiftool.exe with "/FIXED:NO /NXCOMPAT /DYNAMICBASE" flags? (Should I open a new topic for this? since it's not really related to digital signature)

I wouldn't know how to build the exe with those flags.  Maybe as Oliver if he knows about these for the alternate Windows version?  (ask him in this thread)

...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 ($).

The exiftool Windows "executable" is built with the Perl PAR::Packer module.  I don't believe there are options included for using these flags, as Google searches on "PAR:Packer" and each of these flags doesn't return any relevant results.
