Can't locate PAR.pm in @INC (@INC contains: .) at -e line 860.

Thanks for reminding me about this.  I was going to try updating to PAR 1.002.

Here is the Windows version of ExifTool 8.68 packaged using PAR 1.002

Please try this version and let me know if it fixes the problem.

I've just checked your attached version.
It's not working either - Sorry...


- Mr_K

Is there another PAR-Version out?

[Phil Harvey]

The current PAR version is 1.005, but checking the ChangeLog I don't see anything that looks like it would fix this problem.

Hi, should be the solution is very easy. Windows 7?
Did you copy exiftool.exe to Windows\system32 ?

Then the solution isto move the exe directly in the Windows folder like C:\Windows.

Than it works - of course exiftool find there everything needed.

@By the way. Great Tool, Phil.

Hi, should be the solution is very easy. Windows 7?

No, Linux (Wine)...

Sorry, but the latest exiftool version 8.85 is still not working.
Therefore I have to use my workaround to use GeoSetter...

Note that there is another exiftool "wrapper" for Windows posted here.  It also allows you to run the Perl version of exiftool in Windows.

I know this doesn't solve your problem, but there are other good reasons to use this in Windows if you already have Perl installed.

Hi Phil!

The developer of GeoSetter (Mr. Friedemann) accepted this error http://www.geosetter.de/mantis/view.php?id=844, but is still without an (update-secure) solution.

But I think updating the PERL version OR/AND the EXE version should also be possible...
and with your a.m. wrapper in combination with the described windows-registry-Hack it could be a solution. Turing/ Setting this Hack on and off could be a switch between these two versions. 

Thank you so far for your great support! - Mr. K
