Best way to exclude files from backup in ATI 2013

Thread needs solution

Which is the best way to exclude files from backup in ATI 2013?
Is it suggested to write file extension and select each file indvidually, or can be good even to select just a specific folder ?
Thanks in advance

It depends what your goal is.

When I do one type of backup, I exclude my music files by excluding specific file extensions: *.flac, *.m4a, *.mp3

No, you don't need to exclude each file individually, but you can do so if there are certain large files you wish excluded that can't be conveniently excluded via file extension or folder.

If you have folders that you want entirely excluded, you can exclude their paths.

I 1want to exclude some videos, so I think I'll add extension *.avi to exclusion. Or is better to select Videos folder\OK\Add ?
