Code:

exiftool -all= *.jpg

or even

Code:

exiftool -R -all= directory

Where directory is a path to some directory (can be . for the current directory) and -R means "anything below it".

ExifTool is a free application available on all platforms. Downloading it and using it is likely to be a lot faster than installing an equivzlent pugin for Gimp.

Download ExifTool first,

then enter the above command into cmd ?

Am I correct?

However Gimp batch. @Kenny, something for you to try

There is a Gimp 2.10 procedure gimp_image_set_metadata. Unfortunately this does not show in BIMP "other Gimp procedure" must be one of the restricted 'names'

The work-around is create a plugin without the restriction and use that in BIMP Attached a one-liner strip-metadata.py Unzip put it in your Gimp profile. 

This for example works here, in a linux machine. Bit pressed for time, so not checked in a Windows Gimp 2.10



Will overwrite the existing file. Never a good idea so either add a rename or output to a different folder.

Hi, did you mean I should keep using BIMP while at the same time downloading and applying your 
attachment file? Where should I put the file?

I am really very green in this computer thing
