As I am in the process of trying to install a new third party add-on for Gramps, I am am stuck when I try to use it in an existing AIO 5.1.5 installation.  
The add-on needs the Python interface to Exiftool PyExiftool.  
As I am developing the add-on under Linux, where I had no problem installing all the necessary files, I got stopped in my tracks when I wanted to move and test the add-on with Windows AIO.  
Is it possible at all, and if so how?  
Or will I really need to install a full development setup under Windows - using MSYS - as explained on the Wiki?
