Bug descripton
jExifTool does not find exiftool, which is findable via a correctly set up PATH entry. Thus jExifTool cancels startup with a ”Erroneous ExifTool preference – The ExifTool specified in your preferences does not exist. Did you move/rename/delete it??“ dialog. (German translation is dubiuous, btw. And why two ”?“ in the English string?)
The culprit seems to be the way jExifTool tries to determine the location of exiftool, which seems to be somehow launching a where exiftool command. Note the java.io.IOException: CreateProcess error=2 and Cannot run program ""Error: File not found - where"" log items;

My system has a standard COMSPEC set to %SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe; to use the traditional where command from PowerShell, though, I have to type where.exe to differentiate between the alias of the Where-Object Cmdlet and the legacy %SystemRoot%\system32\where.exe – if that might be an issue.
