===== 1.          Filter files containing the letter a. =====
----

a.     Include them in the backup with Exclude all unmatched files/folders unchecked. 

| {{public:features:filter:image111.png?700}} |

The result is:      

| {{public:features:filter:image113.png?700}} |

Explanation:  As you can see in the screenshot above only the files containing the letter a is greyed out so this means those are the ones that matches the filter criteria.

b.     Another scenario is still the same with the one above but this time the Exclude all unmatched files/folders box is checked.  

| {{public:features:filter:image117.png?700}} |

| {{public:features:filter:image119.png?700}} |

Also the filter will be based on the last letter of the whole file which includes the filename extension, that is why only the xls files are excluded from the backup.  And the map_of_philippines is included since it is a jpg file so the last letter of the file is the letter g.
 

b.     Another scenario is still the same as the one above, but this time the Include all unmatched files/folders is left unchecked.

| {{public:features:filter:image147.png}} |  

| {{public:features:filter:image149.png?700}} |  

| {{public:features:filter:image151.png?700}} | 

The result is:

| {{public:features:filter:image153.png?700}} |

| {{public:features:filter:image177.png}} |  

| {{public:features:filter:image179.png?700}} | 

The result is: 

| {{public:features:filter:image181.png?700}} |
