Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Niquelao Image Optimizer

Optionally. Enable "Save backup" in the settings to keep a .niquelao-bak copy alongside each processed file.

By default only the full-size original is backed up, not every thumbnail size. Go to Niquelao Optimizer → Maintenance to scan for accumulated .niquelao-bak files, download a ZIP copy, and purge them in batches.

Yes. The EXIF/IPTC Copyright, Artist and Author fields are preserved after stripping the rest of the metadata.
