Restic exclude question on windows?

Getting Help

So did you try what I said earlier about escaping \ character ?

22

hi @deajan thanks for the reply,

would it be something like this?

\\\\$?\GLOBALROOT\Device\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy*

23

You would need to escape all '' characters twice.

24

hi @deajan possible if you can show me an example :sweat_smile:

25

You’d have something like \\\\$?\\GLOBALROOT\\Device\\HarddiskVolumeShadowCopy*

26

Anyway, I don’t even understand how you get these.
What’s your full restic command line (and restic version) ?
