The problem appears to be associated with metadata management option "Write sidecar to files". Please see video https://youtu.be/4isUkDGVEgs STEPS TO REPRODUCE In Settings, ensure "Write sidecar to files" is checked. 1. Select image to export to local storage 2. Check "Remove All Metadata" 3. Proceed with export OBSERVED RESULT Metadata not removed, and sidecar files are copied to export directory EXPECTED RESULT No metadata should be in the final JPEG. This result happens when the "Write sidecar to files" is NOT checked in the digiKam settings.
