Sometimes, it may be required to exclude one or more subdirectories from the duplicate files detection process. For example, if you need to find all duplicate files on a disk excluding one or two special directories, you may specify the whole disk as an input directory and add the directories that should be skipped to the exclude list.

In order to add one or more directories to the exclude list, press the 'Manage Profile' button to open the profile dialog, select the 'Exclude' tab and press the 'Add' button. All files and subdirectories located in the specified exclude directory will be excluded from the duplicate files detection process. Keep in mind that exclude directories are case sensitive and should be specified with the same case as stored on the disk. Select an exclude directory and press the 'Delete' button, to remove the selected directory from the exclude list.
