Hi,
one easy question. From my understanding the exception in Central
C:\ABC\EFG\
is in Sophos Central technically the same as
C:\ABC\EFG\*
or
C:\ABC\EFG\*.*
correct or incorrect?

Hello LHerzog,
incorrect.
Interestingly the Help for the on-premise SEC describes wildcards quite differently although SAV is essentially the same. Neither hekp is as clear as it could IMO be,
C:\ABC\EFG\ should be equivalent to C:\ABC\EFG\**. It excludes everything in the folder and its subfolders (a folder exclusion in SEC's terms)..
C:\ABC\EFG\* or C:\ABC\EFG\*.+ excludes only files in the named folder (in SEC's terms a file exclusion)..

Thank you QC
The on-Prem help you provided is a bit more clear here
Specific folder |
Specify a folder path including a drive letter or network share name to exclude everything in that folder and below. |
D:\Tools\logs\ |
Include a trailing slash after the folder name. |
