Yes, you can remove it and it will rebuild the sample set of keywords.

On macOS, it is in the following location:

/Users/<your user name>/Library/Preferences/com.camerabits.PhotoMechanic/StructuredKeywords_UTF-8.txt

The easiest way to get there is to switch to the Finder, and choose "Go to Folder..." on the "Go" menu and enter:

~/Library/Preferences/com.camerabits.PhotoMechanic

A window should open up at that location and you should see the StructuredKeywords_UTF-8.txt file there.  Drag it to the Trash.


On Windows it should be in this location:

C:\Users\<your user login name>\AppData\Roaming\Camera Bits, Inc\Photo Mechanic\

Depending on your settings, you may not see an AppData folder in your user directory.  It may be hidden.  You can either change your settings to show "Hidden files and folders", or just copy the above path and substitute your username in it and paste it in the navigation bar at the top of any Windows Explorer window.

Once you find the StructuredKeywords_UTF-8.txt file, delete it.

HTH,

Hi
but this will delete my personal words keys too?
thanks

Kirk Baker:
Yes.  It most definitely will.  If you want to remove entire trees of data that you imported, the file is a simple text file and you can open it with any text editor that understands UTF-8 encoded text.  Find the junk you want to remove, select it, then press the backspace or delete key.  Then save the file.

Before you edit the file, you should back it up (make a copy) and you should also quit Photo Mechanic first.
