> Note: This tool was specifically built for the Stable Diffusion Web UI. It may not work with other PNG images. This tool is only tested in Windows.
## Installation
Download `ReMeta.zip` from [this link](https://github.com/geocine/remeta/releases/download/v1.0/ReMeta.zip) or go to [Releases page](https://github.com/geocine/remeta/releases) to get the latest one. Extract it to any folder. Inside the folder you will see 3 files: `remeta.exe`, `add.reg` and `remove.reg`.
Modify path to `remeta.exe` in `add.reg`. Replace `D:\\SW\\bin` with your path to `remeta.exe`.
So if you downloaded `remeta.exe` to `C:\\tools` folder you need to change `add.reg` like this
> Notice that you need to always use double `\` , eg. `C:\\the\\folder\\of\\remeta`
```diff
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\ReMeta]
"MUIVerb"="ReMeta"
"AppliesTo"=".png"
"SubCommands"="ReMeta.clear;ReMeta.get"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\ReMeta.clear]
