SEP 11 Centralized Exception Prefix Variables for the logged in User

  • 1.  SEP 11 Centralized Exception Prefix Variables for the logged in User

    Posted Dec 15, 2010 06:43 PM

    Hi Everyone,

     

    I've logged a case for this query, but thought I'd raise the question here as well. I need to set a Centralized Exclusion for a location in the user's temp folder. If I talk "Windows" this would be the following path based on the environment variable:

    %temp%\Folder

    From what I can see so far, the only "Prefix Variables" available to me deal with the system level and common or "All Users" level environments. I can't see how to set an exception for the logged in user environment.

    Is this available?

    Can I use "%temp%\Folder" in my exceptions? (so far my own answer after testing this is No)

    Is my next action to click on the "Ideas" link and log a feature request to the developers?

     

    Cheers

    Matt

    Hi.

    With no replies in over a month, I think you'll have to create an idea.

    I have a similar problem with x64 machines.

    On Win32 platform you have a variable for %ProgramFiles%, but ...

    On Win64 platform you have %ProgramFiles% and %ProgramFiles_x86%.

    If you use %ProgramFiles% as the prefix, how is that interpreted on 64bit machines?
