Permanently exclude certain file names across all folders
Posted: Sun Aug 04, 2024 9:44 pm
I'd like to permanently exclude files such as picasa.ini or destkop.ini regardless of where they occur. They clutter up scan results. There is an "ignorelist.txt" text files in v. 5 but the examples given by the DV help file don't suggest wild cards or characters. They are:
ignorelist.txt Example file:
C:\Users\me\Documents\Outlook Files\
D:\Photos\Picasa\Exports\Starred Photos\.picasa.ini
D:\Photos\Picasa\Exports\Collages\.picasa.ini
D:\Photos\Picasa\Collages\.picasa.ini
D:\Photos\template.jpg
picasa.ini could exist in hundreds or thousands of folders. Can it and other similar housekeeping files be globally excluded? Couldn't the text file include, for example: "*\.picasa.ini\*"?
Is there another way to do this other than the ignorelist.txt file?
