ExifToolGui rel 6.3.1 has been released at April 16, 2024

Starting from version 6.3.0 the author has added two important command line switches:
1. commandline switch for ensure full portability (%AppData% command is not yet necessary)
2. commandline switch for add multilanguage feature

Portability
Detaills are inside this post: https://github.com/FrankBijnen/ExifTool ... rtable.txt
ExiftoolGui Portable?

Starting with version V6.3.0. a new program parameters is available: '/IniPath=<path>'
With this parameter you specify the location of the ini file. If it is specified, then immediately after starting GUI, the INI file will be saved.
If it fails an error message is displayed and the program halted. To prevent that changes made by the user would not be saved.
<path> can be:
- A fully qualified path: eg: "c:\a dir with spaces"
- %P The directory from where the program was loaded.
- %W The working directory.
- %T a Temp directory.

Note: Also specifying /DontSaveIni has no effect!

Bogdan Hrastnik stated in his documentation on https://exiftool.org/gui/ Bullet 2. ExifToolGui.
Multilanguage
ExifToolGui has not (yet) ability to directly load different languages, so author has created this switch:
/Lang=(three letter state)
example
/Lang=ENU
/Lang=ITA
and so on

The language files are contained only in the installer: 'ExifToolGUI_install_6.3.1.0.exe'.
The language files are .dlls with the extension of the state to which they refer and were created for both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
How to obtain these language DLL?
1. Simple sownload the last installer https://github.com/FrankBijnen/ExifTool ... .3.1.0.exe
2. UniExtract this Installer (has been made by InnoSetup)
3. save the DLL for 32 and 64 bit
4. put all dlls inside folder 'App' of Your yaP launcher

List of DLL:
ExifToolGui.ENU - for USA and GB english
ExifToolGui.NLD - for nederlander
ExifToolGui.DEU - for german language
ExifToolGui.FRA - for french
ExifToolGui.ITA - for italian
ExifToolGui.ESP - for spanish
ExifToolGui.PTB - for portuguese (also Brazil portuguese)
ExifToolGui.CHS - for Simplified Chinese (since rel 6.3.1)
these DLL are not perfect because has been create using DeePL Translator (with exception of NLD author's native language and ENU)
