Excluded folders are being created on the backup server. They are empty folders mind you but they should not be created in the first place. This is not a big deal for the most part but if the excluded folder is a symlink this causes problems. The biggest issue I am having is with the “documents and settings” symlink on win 7 etc. Before version 2 this folder/symlink was not backed up but since ver 2 it is. So I thought, okay, just exclude it. But, since excluded folders are still created on the server, and since this “folder” is a symlink, the whole thing gets created on the server. To fix I think you just need to not create on the backup server folders that are excluded (which should be the behaviour anyway). Please fix asap. Thanks.
Go ahead…

Do you have a fix? Where do I get it from?
