Filters Include folders

Post by calviset »

Hi,
I have migrated from Gravity to Reflector. I have imported my tasks and file inclusions working in Gravity do not seem to work in Reflector (the following description is simplified) :
- I set C:\Users\my name in the list of files/folders to backup
- In the filters, I Include only Desktop and Documents
- No files are backed up, as if the inclusion means now the Desktop and Documents folders as files and not as folders

I do this so that backup files are grouped on the backup drive and more easy to manage

Do I need to do something to make it work?

Best regards

Christophe

Works fine here. Do you include the directories with full path or as masks?

Hi,
Thank you for looking.

I oversimplified, sorry. I am using full path directories. Attached is the task definition.

The C:\ files are properly backed up but note of the E:\ files are (on a complete backup)

Best regards

Christophe

Because E: doesn't contain any of the directories that must be included (include ONLY)
