How to use the default exclusion settings

After you have installed the application, all the exclusion settings are set to the initial values. You can

change them for your current backup operation only or for all backups that will be created in future.

Select the Save as default check box to apply the modified settings to all further backup operations

by default. If you want to reset all the modified settings to the values that they were originally set to

when the product was installed, click the Reset to initial settings button.

What you can exclude and how

1. You can exclude hidden and system files from a backup by selecting the corresponding check

boxes.

We do not recommend excluding hidden and system files from the backups of your system partition.

2. You can exclude files meeting the criteria you specify. To do this, select the Files matching the

following criteria check box, enter the exclusion criterion, and then click Add.

How to add an exclusion criterion:

 You can enter explicit file names for exclusion from the backup:

 file.ext - all such files will be excluded from the backup.

 C:\file.ext - the file.ext file on the C: disk will be excluded.

 You can use wildcard characters (* and ?):

 *.ext - all files with a .ext extension will be excluded.

 ??name.ext - all files with a .ext extension, having six letters in their names (starting with any

two symbols (??) and ending with name), will be excluded.

 To exclude a folder from a disk-level backup, click Browse, select the folder you want to exclude

on the directory tree, click OK, and then click Add.

To delete a criterion, for example, added by mistake, click the Delete icon to the right of the

criterion.
