Exclude.dir             C:\WINDOWS

No way to control what windows wants to put in their system directories.
We just reinstall windows from CD/DVD and then restore user data.

Thanks,

Subject: [ADSM-L] Win Server 2008 question

One of the Windoze admins was holding forth, loudly, about a feature of
WinServer2008, a folder called winsxs, window side by side, which
metastasizes rapidly across the /WINDOWS directory.  He says it can't be
removed.  If he's worried, I'm worried about how much extra storage I'm
putting on TSM.

Any one know anything about this and how to avoid its effects?
