Attix5 Backup - Exclude Office Temp Files

[DavR]

Might be preaching to the choir on this one, but thought I'd share because it's something I've banged my head against for a while.

 

When backing up with Attix5, it attempts to, but fails to, back up the temporary file of open Office documents, ie the ~$filename.xlsx file. I tried putting ~$*.xlsx in global exceptions, but no joy.

 

Turns out Attix5 doesn't accept the $, but it should work with ~*.xlsx.

Very helpful for me, as I get warnings on my notification emails fairly regularly about it

 

(Implemented this morning and untested, but I have faith!)
