Hi,

The screenshot do not help really.

Please install the debugview program from Microsoft. Active the debug
trace in digiKam/Setup/Misc dialog and restart digiKam. Copy the
debugView traces captured here.

See the contribute web page for details :

> Please note that the file name is the time stamp of the screenshots. The first image shows the Exif metadata from the right panel. The second images shows the edit metadata dialogue window before entering changes. The third image is the desired changes. The last image is the result of clicking "apply" in the edit metadata dialogue window. The right panel shows no additional information.
