Freefilesync exclude subfolder12/4/2023 Once I grasp it I tend to pass up my peers, I'm a conceptual / visual guy. I have a bit of a handicap when it comes to processing new information, especially verbally but sometimes written when I'm not in the "right frame". I must apologize, I'm a little slow on the uptake when I'm dealing with something new to me, not syncing in general, but this particular program which I really like. Thank you Plerry, you put it in a way that I understand. Note that the global filters are defined via Synchronization Settings (F7) or the funnel-icon mid above the left- and right location columns in the GUI, and the local filters via the funnel-icons in between each of the folder pairs. Your global include filter should be "*" and your global exclude filter be anything you need, but does not exclude \Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\*.pst in whole or in part. Now all *.pst-files in \Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\ (or deeper) will be included in said second pair and not excluded via the (local) exclude filter. Now all of Appdata will be excluded from that first pair.įor the second pair, you use a local include filter of (just) "\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\*.pst" and exclude filter that is empty. It is about using two (here: identical) left-right location pairs, equal to your present location pair.įor the first pair, you use a local include filter of simply "*" and exclude filter of "\Appdata". They (=files and directories) have to match at least one entry in the include list and none of the entries in the exclude listġ) If your include filter has a first line of "*", having any more lines is useless: everything is already included.Ģ) By adding "\Appdata" to your exclude filter, everything inside \Appdata is excluded.ģ) And be aware: all filter definitions are relative to the root of respective left- and right-locations in the folder pair.Īpparently you also do not grasp the 2nd example in the User Manual on include/exclude filtering.
