In case I detect "what to excluded" in the question? And demonstrate 
another way to approach the exclusion list. Here is 1 of 6 
components of my primary backup as a specific example. The 
exclusions consist of those things xxcopy can not copy and\or things 
unnecessary for an operable copy of Windows. Registry files are 
handled with ERUNT and bootability is accomplished by editing the 
backup's System hive. 


//System.xcf-------------

//Source-----------------

C:\

//Destination------------

I:\

//Switches---------------

// /CLONE equals /KS/H/E/R/Q/Y/BI/ZY/ZE/oD0
/KS //Keeps the source attributes including read only bit
/H //Copies hidden and/or system files also
/E //Include subdirectories including empty ones
/R //Allows overwrite/delete of read-only files
/Q //Does not display files that are skipped
/Y //Overwrites existing files without prompting
/BI //Backsup incrementally, different (by time/size) files only 
/ZY //Deletes extra files or subdirectories in destination with no 
prompt
/ZE //Disables the use of enviornment variables for xxcopy
// /oD0 //No screen output of a Deleted-file list

//Log File Specifications-

/oN:"F:\My Documents\Scripts\Backup\Backup.log" //New Log File
/oF2 //File list (files that were successfully operated on)
/oD2 //Deleted-file list
/oE2 //Error summary

//Exclusions--------------
