Sorry Tomos.

May be a software able to detect and see metadata ?
A security program to be able to delete metadata, edit....

Like FOCA , but freeware

Please describe exactly what 'sensitive' means, related to the context that makes it sensitive.

I think I will find something in sourceforge, but from my position the web is down.

I have to wait.
I tried metadata analyzer by Smart PC Solutions but adwcleaner detects three menaces...

I don't know exactly. Appear in Mouse post. But I suppose is sensible or privative information or information that third persons may use.
Usually are the metadata, but I don't know if Mouser includes something else.

Best Regards

I fail to see how mouser is involved here or in your request... he didn't even post in this thread (yet).

The term 'sensitive information' is IMHO too broad to be generalized into a 'simple tool', that's why I ask for context and more details. You haven't really clarified anything yet.

[Contro]

I hope Mouser can clarify then

Best Regards

Something like cleanDocs I'm guessing.


Cheap Windows alternative: Remove Personal metadata from Files to Protect Your Privacy

Which is unfortunately very limited in what it will remove.

There's also MAT which supports a few formats.
