Hi all,
does anybody knows, if exiftool will run on the current "microsoft surface 11" tablet with it's snapdragon ARM processor technology?

If you can run Perl on the system, then you can run ExifTool.

It looks like Strawberry Perl is not available for ARM processors.
GitHub issue #28
and more recently
GitHub issue #218

It might be possible to run Perl through the WSL (Windows subsystem for Linux) on ARM.

"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

There is a Perl for ARM linked from this perlmonks post.  The first link is broken, but the others work and the last download link for the zip file is good.
