fast Copy Filter Folders / Exclude Folders

FastCopy: exclude directories and delete files unique to destination #

  • To copy all files and folders on S: except for S:\foo\ and S:\bar\, check the Filter box and enter \foo\ ; \bar\ into the Exclude field. Omitting the leading backslash will skip all directories named "foo" or "bar", regardless of location.

  • Options to review when enabling the filter: Option > Main Settings > Copy/Move Options > "Don't create empty directory, if 'Filter' is checked." and Option > Main Settings > Delete Options > "Try to delete directory, even if 'Filter' is checked."

  • Delete files and folders unique to the destination by changing the operation mode in the dropdown box from the default "Diff (No overwrite)" to "Sync (Size/Date)"

  • Appending a backslash to the target directory will result in a new directory being created therein.
