Note: Exclusions override selection of data items to recover. For example, if you select to recover file MyFile.tmp
and to exclude all .tmp files, file MyFile.tmp will not be recovered.

Use the Add, Edit, Remove and Remove All buttons to create the list of files and folders to exclude.
Specify the name of the file or folder, such as Document.txt.

The names are not case-sensitive in Windows and Linux. For example, if you choose to exclude
all .tmp files and the Temp folders, also excluded will be all .Tmp files, all .TMP files, and the TEMP
folders.

You can use one or more wildcard characters * and ?:



The asterisk (*) substitutes for zero or more characters. For example, Doc*.txt covers files such
as Doc.txt and Document.txt.



The question mark (?) substitutes for exactly one character. For example, Doc?.txt covers files
such as Doc1.txt and Docs.txt, but not the files Doc.txt or Doc11.txt.
