You can remove metadata from an image using built-in tools or free image editors, depending on your device. Metadata usually includes details like the camera model, date and time the photo was taken, GPS location (if enabled), and other technical information. If you're sharing images publicly, removing this information can help protect your privacy.
On Windows, the easiest method is:
- Right-click the image and select Properties.
- Open the Details tab.
- Click Remove Properties and Personal Information.
- Choose Create a copy with all possible properties removed or manually select the properties you want to remove.
- Save the new copy.
