Exifcleaner review full#
If you need full EXIF support, BuBBy covered the major freeware in post #1. Again, batch-edit is possible (use standard Windows multi-select features). Move your mouse down the Value column in the Details tab, and values which you can change will be shown, just like in the Details pane in Explorer. As usual, apart from using the mouse, Ctrl-Tab and Shift-Ctrl-Tab selects tabs in the Properties window. Apart from various menus and context menus, Alt-Enter in Explorer will bring up Properties. More EXIF properties (but still a few) are available in the file Properties. Vista will batch-edit values, just select multiple pictures. Don't forget, among the possible properties that the Details pane will show, how much gets displayed depends upon the size of the pane, which you can manually set, or right-click and set, and it also depends upon the size of the Explorer window. At least on Vista and higher, Explorer's Details pane will display a few EXIF properties/values. Nobody ever seems to know about or comment on built-in features of Windows. You can rearrange everything so that you can actually read things (sure, you can view the tooltip windows, but that's one-at-a-time), but the next time you open ExifCleaner, it's back to defaults. By default, the panes and columns are very poorly sized, particularly on high-resolution displays.

I'll probably never use ExifCleaner, but one thing that really bugs me about it is that the UI doesn't remember UI preferences. #8, goodgotd, metadata is separate from the compressed image data. I thought his review of SoftChronizer was particularly poor and inept, but I've said things about those types of utilities in the past, and it would take me forever to cover all of the issues, features, alternatives, etc. That's why he also can't comment on registration issues. #6, Brad Spenser, Ashraf doesn't review the version which we get, GOTD gives him advance notice and he downloads whatever trial version is available on the developer's website.
