Backing up files without extension

Postby bojan » Sat Nov 07, 2009 2:27 pm

Hi,

I can't seem to back up files that doesn't have any extension. I supose this is something connected to the extension filter (mine is to include *.* - all files). But files without extension are not being added.

I think that the filter should be just * but I cannot add this filter.

My AceBackup version is 3.0.0.0

Thanks,
Bojan

Hello,

in order to add files without extension you need to set the filter *.
If you enter that, the "Add"button will be enabled and you can add your filter.

Best regards,

Hi - thanks for the reply
I have discovered that leaving all of the file extension definitions out actually works.
i.e. it backs up all files including those without file extensions
Thanks anyway, Paul
