- Wildcard exclusions must use forward slashes in the UNIX style for Windows computers. Example: /windows/system*/.

/Windows/system32/*
- Folder:
- A wildcard must be added for each level of folder depth. For example,
/folder/*/script.vbsmatches\folder\test\script.vbsor\folder\exclude\script.vbs, but does not work for\folder\test\001\script.vbs. This would require either/folder/*/001/script.vbsor/folder/*/*/script.vbs. - Wildcards support full and partial exclusions.
- Full wildcard:
/folder/*/script.vbs - Partial wildcard:
/folder/test*/script.vbs
- Full wildcard:

Warning: Wildcards may lower one’s security stance if used too broadly. For example, excluding the entire
\Windows\Temp folder is not recommended.
