How to view EXIF location camera data from Windows 10?

Using a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and the Gallery app, I can see the GPS data for a photo taken with the Samsung SM-N960F camera app.

However, I am having trouble seeing the GPS data from Windows 10 when the phone is attached by USB cable. All that I see of the EXIF data is this …

Why not? I want to be able to upload these photos to my cloud and retain the location information. TIA ... Greg

    Hi,

    When viewing the pictures EXIF data on the phone thru USB connection, there will be limited data presented as you are most likely viewing the thumbnail version of the actual picture.

    The full EXIF data will be available when you copy the said picture to the PC's HDD & viewing it thru the same method.

    Regards,

    Lee

    If you import the images to a local folder, is the EXIF data also missing?

    No, it is not missing when the image is local. However, given the way I use my devices, I can't always transfer the images to the C-drive. What does it take for me to view the complete EXIF data from a USB-attached device or even a local network attached device?

    Thank you very much for the quick response!

    I am seeing the meta data on the images I import from my iPhone. This might be an issue with your installation.

    Try upgrading to the newer Windows 10 1903 release to see if it resolves this problem
