Excluding All But One

  • I'm backing up almost all files in %PROFILEDIR%.
  • But I'm excluding %PROFILEDIR%\AppData\Local\Microsoft
  • Except, I want to include %PROFILEDIR%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Bookmarks
i.e. I don't want to back up ALL the Microsoft stuff in AppData\Local\Microsoft -- just the Bookmarks file.
Is there a way I can say to exclude all of the Microsoft folder, except the Bookmarks file?
If I have to, I'll exclude the Microsoft folder, and set up a separate task to back-up Bookmarks, but that's kinda hackey.

TIA

I may be wrong but I think the exclusions superceed the inclusions. I think you need to separate this task into two, with the first one ignoring the big directory and the second one with only the little one as a source.
