Launching Exclusions Editor

Edition:This feature is available in AdminStudio Professional and Enterprise Editions.

The Exclusions Editor can be launched either within the Repackager interface or outside of Repackager. You can edit the default exclusions file, isrepackager.ini, using either interface.

Note:You can also add items to the default exclusions file from the Files and Folders view of the Repackager interface. See Adding Files and Folders to the Global Exclusions List from the Files and Folders View.

However, if you want to create a new, custom exclusions file, you must launch the Exclusions Editor outside of Repackager.
