I am unable to exclude files in local backup

Thread needs solution

I'm backing up my home directory to my Synology NAS.  In the exclusions when I try to add shared directories I don't want backed up like:

C:\Users\bernie\shared  OR C:\Windows\Users\bernie\shared

The directory is not added.  In fact anything I add is not added to the list of exclusions.

Any ideas?

You must get down to the file level for exclusions.  I suggest you try C:\Users\bernie\shared\*.* to exclude all files in that folder.

Your welcome.
