I'm evaluating XYplorer at this point.
All of my photo files have the names of the persons shown in the photo entered in the Tag filed. That is the Tag filed in the file IPTC fields. I've tried many ways to see those Tags using XYplorer but they never show up. Is there a trick to getting XYplorer to show, and allow editing of, the IPTC Tag field?
I have 50,000 photos and have spent untold numbers of hours entering Tags. One advantage of Tagging photos in the IPTC field group is the Tags are in the photo file. I can mail the photos and the person who receives the mail will receive photos tagged with all of the names of those in the photos (family genealogy work).
The Windows 7 Windows Explorer has the best viewer/editor for Tags that I've ever found. But Windows 7 is losing support as of January 2020 and the new File Manager of Windows 10 totally sucks as a Tag editor / viewer. The worst thing is File Manager alphabetically sorts the Tags - killing my work of entering names left-to-right.
I'm hoping XYplorer can fill this need but so far not as far as I can see.
Any help would be appreciated.
