Cobian Reflector • Re: Error occurred, access is denied while backing up

Hi Luis,
This is my first post on this forum - apologies if I've posted in the wrong place. Firstly, thank you for such a brilliant piece of software! I've been using Cobian for years. I have been looking for a solution to this issue since I started using Cobian. No matter what I try, I cannot correctly exclude System Volume Information and Recycle Bin from my backup. I always get errors, no matter what filters I try.
Example:
ERR 2024-04-04 09:52:42 An error occurred while listing the content of the directory "D:\$RECYCLE.BIN\S-1-5-21-1577928414-1351898710-903497448-1000": (5) Access is denied: [\\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy19\$RECYCLE.BIN\S-1-5-21-1577928414-1351898710-903497448-1000]

ERR 2024-04-04 10:00:48 An error occurred while listing the content of the directory "D:\System Volume Information": (5) Access is denied: [\\?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy19\System Volume Information]

I've tried filters in multiple configurations:

1) *\$RECYCLE.BIN\*
2) *\$RECYCLE.BIN\* \*
3) D:\$RECYCLE.BIN\*
4) E:\$RECYCLE.BIN\*

etc..

I've searched the forums and yet found no solution that works. In this forum post:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1522&p=6392&hilit=f ... +bin#p6392
Another user asks the same question, and your answer is to add the following filter:

Just add

*\$RECYCLE.BIN\* (or E:\$RECYCLE.BIN\) as an exclusion filter.

Ot

However, as stated above, I have tried this and many other filters, but none seem to correctly exclude System Volume Information or Recycle Bin.
I'm currently using Cobian Reflector 2.6.55.
Any assistance with this would be appreciated, as this is the only issue I have with this software.
Many Thanks.
