Unfortunately I struggle with exclude filter patterns in C:\Users\...: I maintain PCs with 30+ users with lots of changes). For all Users I want to exclude ..\AppData\.. and I tried various regex-patterns and masks. Basically my filter work (on test directory trees) but they do not work in C:\Users\ and it's tons of junctions. In my results AppData tree is always included in the ZIP archives.
I have tried the following filters and regex commands:
Filter: *\AppData *\AppData\* (and a few more variants)
Regex: .*\\AppData$ .*\\AppData\\.* (and a few more variants)
It is mandatory to keep the option "ignore empty directories" active, because that is needed for other directories.
Are there other paramaters for filters or regex I can try? Or additional options that I can test? Is there any special note I have to take care of when backing up C:\Users?
Thanks in advance for your support!
