Backup doesn't exclude folders?

If this is a known issue, I apologize. I briefly looked through the forum and didn't see this issue.

I'm using Toucan (portable) for the first time, and I'd like to use it to backup everything on my USB drive except my MP3 and Kino folder (off the root). I've tried entering each of the following in the Folder Exclude box, but none of them seem to work:

MP3
Kino
MP3\
Kino\
\MP3
\Kino
\MP3\
\Kino\
D:\MP3
D:\Kino
D:\MP3\
D:\Kino\
@drive@\MP3
@drive@\Kino
@drive@\MP3\
@drive@\Kino\
@drive@MP3\
@drive@Kino\
@drive@MP3
@drive@Kino

What is the syntax I should be trying? Case sensitive?

Using Toucan 1.2.2.0.

Thanks.

Luckily

for you Toucan 2 should be released very shortly with a brand new exclusions system which should fix this Smile

Great!

I'll be looking forward to using Toucan 2. Do I understand correctly that this is a bug with the current version, and I'm not just too stupid to use it? Smile

Thanks for the responses and I appreciate the obvious labor of love on Toucan.
