Hello,

Is it possible to exclude a whole directory including all of its subfolders and files (approx. 78Gb) from the Full back-up and/or incremental back-ups?
Whe are using Acronis Backup&Recovery Server for Windows Universal Restore Edition build 11639

Yes. On the backup plan creation page, check 'advanced view' checkbox on the top, "Exlcusions" field will appear. Then add the directory in exclusions list, with trailing backslash.

Hello dev-anon,

Thanks for the solution, but what do you mean with 'trailing backslash'? can you give me an example of such a exclusion?

Suppose that you need to exclude directory C:\mydata with all subfolders. In exclusion dialog you need to enter the string c:\mydata\ , not c:\mydata
The last backslash is necessary.
