16. How do I exclude files or folders from my Backup, Sync or ongoing transfers in Uploads?

You can exclude folders and files from your backup or sync from the Exclusions tab under Settings. Note that exclusions apply to your backups and syncs, as well as ongoing transfers in Uploads. They need to be added before setting up your backup/sync.

  • Right-click on the pCloud Drive icon in the system tray
  • Go to Settings > Exclusions

You'll see a list of the folders and files excluded by default. They cannot be deleted but additional ones can be added.

To exclude a folder:

  • Click the button and select the folder you want to exclude
  • Confirm the exclusion and click Apply

To exclude files: Enter the file extensions in the field, separated by a comma.
