Any good meta data remover I can use on Windows 10?

I need to remove the EXIF metadata from a batch of photos, along with metadata from some videos and PDF files, before sharing them. Doing this one file at a time manually isn't really practical given...

If you're trying to clean up metadata from your video files, ImageGlass is worth a look—though it's mainly an image viewer. It does let you view and remove EXIF metadata from images, and it supports batch processing for things like location data, device info, and timestamps. But for actual video files, its support is pretty limited.

You can open an image in ImageGlass, check the properties or metadata panel, and delete the EXIF data manually. For multiple images, you can select them all and apply the same action in one go. It's quick and straightforward, but if you're working with video formats like MP4 or MOV, this tool won't get you far.

Still trying to find a video meta data remover that actually works for video files? ImageGlass isn't built for that. It handles images just fine, but it's not a video meta data remover—you'd need something else that supports those formats natively.

Pros:

  • Lightweight and fast image viewer.
  • Supports batch processing for images

Cons:

  • Very limited video support—mainly built for images.
