I installed .443, had the missing Exiftool problem; uninstalled PWP via Control Panel, installed again (bit of a pain to re-select the associated filetypes). Then it worked.
Windows 10.

It looks like there is some problem with the installer (which is a 3rd party package) that was triggered by a change in the way Exiftool is distributed. There are at least two ways to avoid the issue:

1) Uninstall the previous version before installing the new one
2) After you get the error, re-install and do a Repair

For the next release, I have renamed the installed copy of exiftool.exe to exif_tool.exe. Hopefully this will fix the problem for future installs.
