When i create a "Files" backup (not a disk backup) i cannot create exclusion filters

Thread needs solution

When i create a "Files" backup (not a disk backup) i cannot create exclusion filters. I haven't the option in the advanced options as when i create a "Disk" backup. So if i want to create a backup of a big folder and i want to exclude files like .avi or .mp3, i cannot.

is that a bug?

Thank you.

Hello Emanuele De Amicis,

Thank you very much for your post. I will certainly help you with this.

If you are using Acronis Backup and Recovery 10 you can definitely set exclusions during a file backup. In the backup plan creation window, simply check the advanced view and the exclusions option will appear below the "What to backup" item.

For your convenience I have attached a screenshot to my post that shows the necessary options.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thank you.
