Stephen:

As you seem to be running this under Windows, please try: --exclude "**.pst"

Hi all,

Having trouble excluding Outlook.pst file from a backup.

Target dir is d:/Users/Steve

And the outlook.pst file is located several sub folders below the target dir.

One of the containing folders contains spaces in its name.

I've tried the following

--exclude '**pst'

--exclude **pst

--exclude '**.pst'

--exclude **.pst

And I've had no luck, keep getting following type of error.

Fatal Error: Fatal Error: The file specification

    '"**'

cannot match any files in the base directory

    'd:/Users/Steve'

Any suggestions and comments welcome.

thanks.
