Below you will find several binary releases:
The below releases do NOT contain exiftool itself. Download exiftool from https://exiftool.org/ (the linux deb will do that for you).
Windows users: remember to rename the "exiftool(-k).exe" to "exiftool.exe".

Universal jar

jExifToolGUI.jar: Just the bare jExifToolGUI.jar containing all dependencies. You need to have java version 8 (1.8) or newer installed on your system. Start with java -jar jExifToolGUI.jar &.
This version should run on any system that comes included with java 8 or newer or where you can install java 8 or newer. (Windows/Linux/MacOS (BSD*unix)/Solaris/AIX/HP*UX etc.)

Windows:

• jExifToolGUI-1.3.0.0-win-x86_64_with-jre.zip: A windows 64-bit executable including java V11. Unzip with paths!
• jExifToolGUI-1.3.0.0-win-x86_64.zip: A windows 32/64 bit executable without java. You need java 8 (1.8) or newer installed on your system.

MacOS:

• jExifToolGUI-x86_64-macos-1.3.0-with_jre.dmg.zip: A MacOS bundle including java V11. Note: Apple is very unfriendly to non-Apple stuff like java/perl and other software. This bundle IS a working Apple bundle but not entirely according Apple standards.
• jExifToolGUI-x86_64-macos-1.3.0.dmg: A MacOS bundle without java. You need java 8 (1.8) or newer installed on your system.

Linux

• jexiftoolgui-1.3.0.deb: a Linux .deb package. For all Debian based systems (Debian/Ubuntu/Mint/MX Linux/Raspbian etc. etc.). This is a linux multi-architecture version as the relevant java V11 version for your system/architecture will be downloaded as dependency.
• jExifToolGUI-1.3.0-x86_64.AppImage: Linux universal Appimage including java V11. Runs on every 64bit intel Linux system (and also inside Chromebook Linux beta). Simpy do a chmod +x jExifToolGUI-1.3.0-x86_64.AppImage and start with ./jExifToolGUI-1.3.0-x86_64.AppImage &.

Note: There is the java JDK (Java Development Kit) and java JRE (Java Runtime Environment). The JRE is needed to run java applications and is normally 4-5 times smaller than the full JDK. Since a few years the JREs are no longer distributed.
AdoptOpenJDK "strips" the JDKs and delivers JREs. See https://adoptopenjdk.net/releases.html
