AI Metadata Inspector

Download Latest Version

AI-Metadata-Inspector provides a simple way to view the hidden information stored inside images and videos created by artificial intelligence. Many tools embed the prompt, the model name, and the generation settings directly into the file. This application reads that data. You can copy this information to your clipboard for use in other projects. The tool integrates into your Windows right-click menu for quick access.

📝 Troubleshooting common issues

If you encounter issues during installation or usage, check these items first.

The menu option does not show up. Restart your computer after you install the software. This resets the file explorer icons and menu hooks. Ensure your user account has administrator rights.

The program says the file has no data. Some websites remove metadata when you save an image. If you download a file from a social media site, the original prompt may be missing. Always try to save the original file directly from the generation interface.

The window stays blank. Verify that the file you chose is an image or video format such as JPG, PNG, or MP4. The tool requires a supported file type to read the information.

Unexpected errors occur. Close the application and open it again. You can also run the installer a second time to perform a repair on the application files.
