File filters vs folder filters. What takes precedence?

[drlambert100]

Between two computers, I want to synchronize certain files (all with the same extension) within a folder but don't want all of the folder's contents. To achieve this, do I create a file filter to include the files I want and a folder filter to exclude the rest of the folder's content?

Hi, subfolder filters take precedence, that is, if a subfolder is excluded by subfolder filters it is not even scanned.

Do I create an exclude file filter for the folder to exclude all files and then create an include file filter for the files with the extension in question?

If subfolder is "c:\folder\subfolder\" try using the following file filters:
exclude c:\folder\subfolder\*
include c:\folder\subfolder\*.ext

Thank you. That is what I had in mind to achieve the desired result. Also, if there are any subfolders beyond c:\folder\subfolder, will they be excluded as well with this file filter or does this file filter have no effect on subfolders? Not an undesired result.
