Under Windows can you run : - run kdebugdialog from KDE and turn on debug space of digiKam, especially KEXIV2 - install and run deview.exe to see console output from digiKam - run digiKam and reproduce the dysfunction - report here the debugview trace from digiKam. All is explained here in details : https://www.digikam.org/contrib Gilles Caulier Created attachment 88409 [details]
DebugView log
Starting at line 11840, I:
1) Choose L:/Photos/2014/08/16/Imersao em Fotografia/_MG_5590.CR2
2) Add the tag "Two people"
3) Click "Apply"
5) The sidecar file was not changed
6) Removed the tag "Two people"
7) Click "Apply"
8) The sidecar file was not changed either
Take a look here if this is not relevant of your problem : http://dev.exiv2.org/issues/984 Gilles Caulier As i can seen in trace :

All code relevant of XMP sidecar creation/update is called in libkexiv2.
Gilles Caulier
As i can see : KExiv2Iface::KExiv2::save(const class QString &) const: Metadata for file ' "_MG_5590.CR2" ' written to XMP sidecar. This want mean this code is called : https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdegraphics/libs/libkexiv2/repository/revisions/master/entry/libkexiv2/kexiv2.cpp#L447 and this call this method : https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdegraphics/libs/libkexiv2/repository/revisions/master/entry/libkexiv2/kexiv2_p.cpp#L66 Where only code from Exiv2 shared lib is called and wrapped to C++ exception handler. So i suspect really an Exiv2 problem here... Gilles Caulier Under Windows, which Exiv2 version you use exactly ? Look into digiKam Help/Components Info dialog for details.

Libkexiv2 interface is the same version, that a good point here. I CC Exiv2 coordinator to see if he know a Windows bug fixed with version > 0.22 Gilles Caulier Ananta, For next version 4.3.0, it will be nice to use last stable Exiv2 library 0.24 with digiKam to prevent the risk of re-introduce unwanted bugs. Next digiKAm version 4.3.0 is planed in one week. I will also add more debug statements in libkexiv2 to see if all stage of metadata saving operations are fine.

Ananta, Sound like the bug is really fixed. Look this comment : https://www.digikam.org/node/724#comment-20934 Gilles Caulier |
Created attachment 88408 [details] Windows (left) and Linux (right) settings Sidecar files are neither created nor updated under Windows x64 8.0. I included some tags to my photos without any sidecar file to be created, although the tags are available (saved in the database, perhaps?). The current sidecar files are not touched either when tags are changed. Under Ubuntu server x64 13.10 everything is good, sidecars are either updated or created, depending on they already exist or not. Both Windows and Linux have the same settings for metadata.
