[SOLVED] ignore steam folder

Is there a way to ignore the steam folder by default by manually adding to the config file? Since those games can be redownloaded for free, it does not make sense for us to back them up. Sometimes we will forget to uncheck it and the folder can be 500+ GBs of stuff we do not want.

Re: [SOLVED] ignore steam folder

Hi,
By default, this is not possible in Pro version that is designed to grab everything it finds. However, there is a trick: you can set the steam folder as excluded. Yes, it will be scanned anyway for file listing and this can generate a waste of time if there are a huge amount of data but it will not be copied.

Hope this helps


Fab
