Hi, Try this: Include %ROOT%\conf\\*.nxlog.conf
The reason is that any character after a \ is ignored so a simple "\*" isn't detected as a wildcard. People are running into the same issue with the File directive for im_file. This is what happens when the backslash is used both as an escape character and the directory separator. The possible solutions would be: * Use something else as the escape character. People are used to \, another escape character would be confusing. * Don't use windows. No comment. * Use / instead of \ as the directory separator. This is already supported for normal (non-wildcarded) paths on windows. Unfortunately it doesn't work with wildcarded paths. Windows users are used to the \ as the directory separator anyway, and we can't disable the original function of the backslash. Obviously there is no easy way in this case, at least I'm not aware of any.
