All,
I am having a major issue with BackupPC. I first tried using
BackupFilesOnly to restrict backups to just the C:\Users directory,
but I needed to exclude some files and since the first overrides the
second I decided to try just using the ExcludeFiles directive. I am
using the following.
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {

I restarted the BackupPC service and I am manually running a backup
using
/usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_dump -v -f l-jwest17b.corpnet.com [1]
I am seeing this when backing up.

I excluded the “Program Files” directory, so not sure why it is
still backing up. I also checked the backup location and it is indeed
backing up these files. Any ideas?

I believe you'll find the key to the discrepancy by comparing the logs
to the exclusions. Let's have a look. The exclude is:
/Program Files
and the log reports
Program
Files/WindowsApps/Microsoft.MinecraftUWP_1.0.20.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe/data/resource_packs/vanilla/ui/ui_template_toggles.json
This suggests to me one of two possibilities:
1) Noting the lack of a leading slash in the logs, it may make sense to
remove the leading slash in the excludes and give it a whirl
2) I also note the unfortunate space in "Program Files" -- if every
other exclude is behaving as expected, then it may be that smbclient is
interpreting this as "exclude \Program and exclude Files" which isn't
having the desired effect. If this is the case, you might want to try
"\Program*Files" instead, which will pick up directories with similar
names, but will identify the issue.
