Thank you so much. This seems pretty simple to understand. I don't know why Google thought it would be a good idea to separate exif data from the image.

Any suggestions on a workflow to download a dozen years of Google Photos (over 50GB) and retiring the files in a usable format? I want to retain all of the metadata too (original dates etc).

great guide bro. the last command is enough actually to redate everything. do u have a fix for photos with duplicate names ie IMG123(1).jpg IMG123(2).jpg? it seems im running into error for those type of files

@arcGunterz Жыл бұрын

Context I have files like this "IMG123(1).jpg" and its corresponding json file "IMG123.JPG(1).json" this is how google takeout named the files as by default i renamed the json file to match the img file to be "IMG123(1).JPG.json" but it still wont work i also tried renaming the files into "IMG123.JPG" and "IMG123.JPG.json" and still it wouldnt work.

hey just a small suggestion if images name doesn't matter just use a python code to name all jpg files numerically or alpha numerically - like A123,A124 etc

is this for one picture only or does it fixed everything in the Google Photos folder ?

It updates the metadata for every photo within the Google Photos folder.

@@allysashafri You can just move the image files. The metadata remains good.

Just to add, it only looks to do one folder at a time. Added a foreach loop which does each folder separately. Then you can keep the album structure from Google Takeout. Basically does the step 4 in the video but auto inputs the Directory Name Open PowerShell CD to Takeout root folder $Folders = Get-ChildItem -Directory | Select Name foreach ($Folder in $Folders.Name) { exiftool -r -d %s -tagsfromfile "%d/%F.json" "-FileCreateDate
