Windows 10: Unable to create a script to sort photos according to EXIF data.

Hello,


Re.: The thread on

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/search-for-photos-taken-by-a-specific-camera/718475f8-38df-40b6-9132-16a6b4e76c27



The script given by Frederik Long on July 24, 2017 is just what I've been looking for,


but I get a compilation error in line 13, position 1 (i.e. line 9 if introducing comments are excluded):

Wrong matrix index,

Code: 800A0009.


This after pasting the text into Vbsedit or Notepad++ and saving as C.vbs in a newly updated 64 bit Windows 10 Home system!



As I know nothing about scripting, I would greatly appreciate some help!


Kind regards,


Kristian Wannebo

Amending EXIF data


I am attempting to amend EXIF data of photo in Properties, Details. I can change Data taken, which usually includes time xx:xx, When, however, I try to include time in the edit, it's not permitted. Time is automatically defaulted to the current.

Suggestions, please, how to get round this, or suitable application that will do what I want.

 

Windows Photos exif data

According to the following article, you should be able to view it from within Windows File Explorer itself.

If you are not seeing it in Photos, it could be a limitation of a still maturing app.

I suggest you use the Feedback Hub to submit a bug report detailing your problem.

Nokia 6288 Exif data not captured

Bummer! We just bought 2 nokia 6288 phones and come to find out that the Exif data: Date Picture Taken is not captured. Is there a firmware update or something I can download? I wonder if I'm doing something wrong. My firmware version is 05.92 07-09-06
RM-78

I've had several different digital cameras and they all store the date the picture was taken. This can be very useful since file create/modification date aren't always reliable. I also have some php scripts I use to post my pictures on a web site, and they
make use of the Exif date the picture was taken.

The following definition for Exif does say that that the data may include (then the list). Note that the date/time the picture was taken is normally considered the most important element (I think). Anyway, is there some way to get around this??? Any clues appreciated!

Quote:

EXIF stands for Exchangeable Image File Format. It was developed by the Japanese Electronics Industry Development Association (JEIDA) in an effort to simplify and standardize the exchange of data between imaging devices and software. Exif is a variation of
JPEG, used by almost all digital cameras to record extra interchange information to image files as they are taken. The type of information stored in a file varies by camera model, but it can include such things as date and time a photo was taken, resolution,
camera settings used for the shot, amount of compression applied, color information, whether or not the flash was fired, shutter speed, name of the camera owner, and so on.

The only Exif fields I see being captured are Camera Model.
