Question

Keeping keywords while moving files

Hi, I need to move some files from one disk on my computer to another hard drive and I wanted to know if I will keep my keywords attached to the files. If the keywords won't be attached to the files, how to move the files and keywords at the same time?
Also, I wanted to know if it's possible to hide files that have a specific keyword. Like, I have some pictures with friends on a folder but I want to show only the pictures that don't have the keyword (friends) that I created.

Thanks for your help in advance.

    If the keywords have been correctly applied, then they will be embedded in the image and should travel with the image. If you are unsure, check after the copy, before deleting the originals (as this is a different drive, it would be a copy, not a move).

    Yes, you can use Bridge’s Edit > Find command setup like this (where files with the keyword “hide” should not be displayed):
