Microsoft Photo Info

I’ve previous posted about using PixVue to edit image metadata directly from Windows Explorer.   I just stumbled across Microsoft Photo Info while going to download Microsoft RAW Image Viewer so I could see thumbnails for CR2 files (Canon RAW images) in Explorer.
Microsoft Photo Info enables easy editing of “metadata” for digital photographs from inside Windows Explorer.   Photo Info is not quite as snappy as PixVue used to be, but has the bonus of the company that created it still being in business. I can no longer find any download sites for PixVue that I trust.

Photo Info seems be to nice enough and gets the job done.

(Update 7/16/2011: Naturally, neither of these apps were available from the URLs this post used. I just removed the links rather than track them down again. I use Lightroom now anyway.)
