I believe the only place to get all the meta data is from the PMP database files.

I did find meta data in EXIF for some of my photos, but definitely not all. You may find advice online saying that you can get this information from EXIF/IPTC data in the files, but I believe that refers to previous versions of Picasa. These are stored as PMP files, which presumably is a proprietary format used by the Picasa team. One of the problems with Picasa is that its metadata is stored in databases external to the photos.

And speaking of metadata, I really don’t want to lose all the work I’ve done in starring photos, face tagging, and filing photos in albums. If I were to lose all metadata, at least I would have the file organization to help me find photos from that trip to Jamaica in June of 2016, for example. I’m really happy with this process, and I refuse to give up my directory organization. put some photos into albums - for example, I have an album of “artistic” shots where I might add a few pictures each year.do some face tagging, but I haven’t been 100% consistent about that - there are still thousands of photos with no face tagging.save images in directories named with this convention: YYYY/MMDD - eventname typically, I dump images from my camera into a folder after a trip, or family gathering, etc.I thought I’d share my strategy for anybody who might be in a similar situation. Now that Picasa will no longer be supported by Google, I had to find a replacement. We have about 50,000 images in there with 22,000 tags, stars, album memberships, etc.

I’ve used Picasa for over 10 years to manage my family’s photo library.
