Here's the text of the '.ExifTool_config' file:
%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined::Options = (
LargeFileSupport =＞ 1,
);
IMPORTANT: If you will copy-paste the text above, please note that the 2nd line (LargeFileSupport...) will not work as is. After pasting the text in, be sure to replace the rightward-facing arrow '＞' with an actual angle bracket. I have to resort to using a special character '＞' that looks like a rightward-facing arrow as YouTube (for some reason) currently does not allow angle brackets in the YT Description section.
Thanks to @MDTechVideos for the workaround!
