View Global Exclusions list
Overview
You can view the global exclusion list for file types and folders that your administrator has excluded from inSync backups.
The inSync Client excludes the files types that your administrator has specified in the global exclude list irrespective of the filters set at the folder level by your inSync administrator or you. For example, if you have configured inSync to back up .exe files from your device, but .exe file type is added to the global exclude list by the administrator, then .exe files will not be backed up.
