You can use the elements to globally exclude data from the migration — for example, to exclude all .mp3 files on the computer or to exclude all files from C:\UserData. This element excludes objects regardless of any other rules that are in the .xml files. For an example, see “” in the How To Exclude Files and Settings topic. For the syntax of this element, see the XML Elements Reference.
