Submit portable freeware that you find here. It helps if you include information like description, extraction instruction, Unicode support, whether it writes to the registry, and so on.

The PA.c Package is 32-bit only as the bit doing the heavy lifting, exiftool.exe, is only 32-bit.
I agree.
Thank a lot for your creation of ExifToolGUI Portable.

FWIW and for years now, unless there's an express need for it, I default to create 32-bit launchers (mostly with yaP) for 64-bit apps and I'm not aware of any shortcomings for this. Have I been wrong all along?

yes
But in this way 64 bit apps DO NOT will run in 64 bit mode.
- NEW: ini keys ending with "X64" are executed only if:
- yaP is running on 64bit Windows, and
- the "application" key has a second exe set (indicating that yaP is running in X64 mode)
The first exe must be set even if the application does not support 32bit:
application = NULL :: App\AppX64.exe
In a PC with Windows 64 bit:
--> yaP launcher 32 bit (x86) + application 64 bit = yaP execute 64 bit app in 32 bit mode
.. and if application write on registry, a key with '6432' will be created.
In short:
with Your method it's possible that Your registry has some unwanted 'Wow6432Node' keys.

• GeoCoding: You can now choose from 2 GeoCoding providers, and use Reverse GeoCoding to lookup Country, Province and City from GPS coordinates.
• Lossless rotate and crop, import and export previews: The external programs Jhead and JpegTrans are replaced by native Delphi code, using a modified library NativeJpg by SimDesign B.V.
Exporting and Importing previews has been revised.

--> but the ExifToolGui executable (32 or 64 bit) equally check if these programs are availables (bug?) -> See Program -> About
