Wait till you meet the real evil...
WEBP images. The worst image file format on earth to deal with metadata and timestamps. FFFFUUUUUCK WEBPOOP (and no AVIF please).
XNViewMP is a saviour on all OSes though, thankfully, being the only tool that can batch convert webpoops to any proper image format with preserved metadata.
Atleast with renamed ZIP files, I literally do not need to care as long as 7-Zip or PeaZip is installed, so I can just "open as * archive". And for video/audio, have MediaInfo installed on any OS. You will thank me someday.
I'm curious, what's wrong with webp?
WEBP is very weird to convert to other formats and retain metadata. This is not a problem with JPG, PNG and other formats. And only one tool I mentioned solves that problem.
Is that an issue with the format or the currently available tools though?
Google is responsible for this problem. They created WEBP, which was not necessary to adopt, but shoved it in our throats via Chrome saving images as WEBP by default, and making websites that use their cloud as CDN serve WEBPs in general.
