The following has nothing to do with Windows 10 directly
I have downloaded a video from Youtube.com

Using exiftoolgui516, I have found some strange tags in the video:
GoogleSourceData BADC202E5HH1352215243090936
GoogleHostHeader o-o---preferred---sn-hpa7ene6---v10---lscache8.c.youtube.com
HandlerDescription (C) 2007 Google Inc. v08.13.2007

Other videos from Youtube look similar.
How to get rid of those tags?

Why do you care about the EXIF metadata in a video you got from someone
else?

For an EXIF editor, there are lots of those. Do a search, like
https://www.google.com/search?q=exif%20editor and that even includes a
Wikipedia article that compares some of them. I haven't bothered
editing EXIF metadata in images or videos, so I don't know if all EXIF
fields are editable.

I think two of those tags are actually trackers. Google owns YouTube.
Whenever you search for, watch or d/l a YouTube video, Google dads that
data point to your dossier.


I read where uploaded videos get transcoding, and that's probably when
Google adds its own tags (except for the location). It was unspecified
by the OP but the strings he showed looked like values, not tag names.

How do those tags compare to the video ID, sCPN and hostname displayed
in the "stats for nerds" when you play the video?
