Trying to skip certain file types in windows no matter where they are.

+skip: *.mdf *.ldf *.tmp *.lck

I tried the directive with just that last night but didn't work. Do I need to make it:

<< "C:" >>
+skip: *.mdf *.ldf *.tmp *.lck

And then again for D: and E: etc? Or is there a way to put this in a single command? I don't care where these files are, they never need to be backed up.
 
Hi,

you can use / instead:

<< / >>
+skip: *.mdf *.ldf *.tmp *.lck

That skips the on all disks that are backed up.
