Select the directories and files to backup.

Unselected directories will be ignored throughout the rest of the filter-process.

Directories

Displays a tree of directories for every root directory.

You can mark a directory to be included or excluded in further operations.
New directories (that did not exist when the Profile was created) inherit their parent's selection state.

Tip: Clicking the right mousebutton shows a popup menu with useful functions.
Files

Shows all the files (and their properties) in the current directory.

Click a column header or a Filter icon to change the sorting order.

The 'Filter Info' column displays the first reason why a file will be excluded.


The Filter icons
  • Excluded: file will be ignored throughout the rest of the filtering process.
  • Included: file is selected (and will be included in the backup).
  • Not Compressed: file will be included but not compressed (ZipForge only).
Tip: Click the right mouse button to activate a popup menu that allows you to quickly add a mask to the Filter.
