Files and directories are only considered for synchronization if they pass all filter rules. They have to match at least one entry in the include list and none of the entries in the exclude list:
Each
list item must be a file or directory path relative
to synchronization base directories. Multiple
items must be separated by ; or a new line. Wild
cards * and ? may be used: * means zero or more
characters while ? represents exactly one character.
Example: Exclude items for mirror-sync from C:\Source to D:\Target
Description Exclude Single file
C:\Source\file.txt \file.txt Single folder
C:\Source\SubFolder \SubFolder\ All files (and folders) named thumbs.db
*\thumbs.db All *.tmp files located in SubFolder only \SubFolder\*.tmp Files and folders containing temp somewhere in their path *temp* Multiple entries separated by semicolon *.tmp; *.doc;
*.bak Exclude all files and folders located in subdirectories of base directories \*\* Exclude only *.txt files located in subdirectories of base directories \*\*.txt
Note For
simple exclusions just right-click and exclude one item or a list
of items directly on main grid via context menu.
A filter phrase is compared against
both file and directory paths. If you want to consider directories
only, you can give a hint by appending a path separator (\).
