cannot exclude system volume information #88

Open covici opened 1 year ago

covici commented 1 year ago

I have downloaded and installed your restic backup script and have run into a few problems. I am wanting to backup all files on my external drive, and I am trying to exclude system volume information . What happens is that I have that in my local.excludes file but it is not doing it, so it gives an access denied on something inside the system volume information and fails and then retries forever.

That is listed in his windows.exclude file by default. Works for me.

It didn't work, but I got it going by spelling it differently, maybe case difference or something.

Thanks.
