| I would like to exclude specific folders from my backup |
In version 4.0 you can simply check/uncheck individual folders
in advanced job editor (on the "Subfolders / Files" category
page), or, if you wish to edit the list manually, click the
"Edit Folder Exception List" at the bottom of this same page.
In version 3.25d and up (including version
4.0), the exception (in 3.x: "exclude") list can contain any of the
following:
- Full pathname (C:\Windows\Temp)
- Pathname without drive letter (\Windows\Temp) (ver 3.25c+)
- Bare folder name (Temp) (ver 3.25d+)
- Folder name relative to backup folder (Windows\Temp) (ver 3.25d+)
- Wildcard specification (C:\*\Temp) (ver 3.25d+)
Note: If wildcards are used, the same rules apply as in file
specification criteria: multiple criteria may be used on a single line,
separated by spaces. If one of the criteria contains a space it must
be included in quotations:
"C:\My Documents\My *" "C:\Old Data"
Exception lists may also contain
FileBack PC variables. If necessary, separate multiple
folder entries in a variable with a semicolon (;):
{FB$TEMP};"C:\Documents and Settings\*\Temporary Internet
Files";*\Archive
