Thanks! Since this is an option that is not enabled in exiftool by default, presumably there are some considerations around setting it. I can't find much detail about what those are though, do you have any insight into that?

Hello @bo0tzz, I asked about that in the exiftool-Forum. Phil (the author of the tool) answered that this can cause a runtime error on older systems (which are not common any more).

This creates a new exiftool instance with the updated setting, but it wouldn't close the previous one.

See newer PR at #9894 which drops the system config.
