I know that some software changes or deletes EXIF but why Windows would do this is beyond my software expertise. What purpose does it serve to have EXIF data removed upon transferring files? |
It's not the OS, it's the (shitty) Windows Picture Viewer application, which is of course installed with the OS. That's the part I don't understand; why Microsoft, which has much better applications in it's own stable, chooses to include that piece of crap with its operating system.
Opening a file in an application without re-saving it shouldn't change EXIF. Key word is "shouldn't," not the same as "doesn't."
Edit for clarity
