Exclusion List

The Exclusion List feature reduces synchronization overhead and disk 
space usage on the server, and speeds up backup and restore operations, 
by excluding files of certain types from replication across all Folder 
Redirection clients. Prior to Windows 7, all files in an Offline Files 
folder were replicated to the server. This often meant that a users’ 
personal files or large files not relevant to the enterprise were 
replicated to one or more servers, thereby consuming disk space and 
slowing backup and restore times. On Windows 7, administrators can use 
the Offline Files Exclusion List feature to prevent files of certain 
types (for example, MP3 files) from being synchronized. The list of file 
types is configured by the IT administrator by using Group Policy.
