Is there a way to back up "almost" everything on a hard drive using Retrospect
7? I would like to choose some files or folders that I do not want backed up. My
main purpose is that I receive error messages for every backup due to certain
files that won't backup successfully. They are not critical files and I just
want to skip them.
I actually use Retrospect Express 7.0.301 but it's supposed to be functionally
the same as the regular version.
Thanks for any hints.

The "regular" version of Retrospect Pro for Windows has a feature
"selectors." A selector can be created to do exactly what you want.

Perhaps you should investigate those error messages though. They might
be important.
