Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.

Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of ExifTool 12.51.

What's new in this version:

- Added a new Olympus LensType (thanks Herb)
- Extract C2PA JUMBF metadata from PNG images and C2PA Salt values
- Decode NikonSettings for Z9 firmware 3.0 (thanks Warren Hatch)
- Decode additional camm metadata from Insta360 Pro2 MP4 videos
- Improved Verbose output when writing Composite tags to add a "+" sign to indicate related tags that are being written
- Enhanced -geotag option CSV format to support GPSImgDirection column

Fixed:
- problem where -w+ option didn't work in Windows if there were Unicode characters in the path name
- problem where only the last image of the sequence was extracted (multiple times) when using -ee2 to extract embedded images from FLIR SEQ files
- issue where GPS reference directions may be unknowingly written when using ExifTool 12.44 or later to write GPSLatitude or GPSLongitude without specifying a group name. The fix was to Avoid writing the Composite tags unless the Composite group is specified explicitly
- -geotag to write orientation and track tags even if some tags in the category were missing
- inconsistency in selecting which tag to output with the -json option when multiple tags with the same JSON key exist and the -TAG# feature is used to disable print conversion
- problem writing QuickTime:PlayListID
- problem writing QuickTime tags when specifying tag ID (ie. family 7 group) as well as a language code
