FbwfAddExclusion

  • Article

Adds a file or directory to the file exclusion list.

  ULONG FbwfAddExclusion(
   PWCHAR 
  volume
  ,
   PWCHAR 
  path

  }

Parameters

  • volume
    [in] NULL terminated wide string containing the volume name
  • path
    [in] NULL terminated wide string containing the file or directory to be excluded.

Return Values

This function may return the following:

Return value Description
NO_ERROR The operation completed successfully.
ERROR_INVALID_DRIVE If the specified volume is valid but does not exist or is not protected.
ERROR_INVALID_FUNCTION If the filter is not enabled for the next session.
ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER If the volume or path parameter is NULL.

Remarks

This change will not take effect until the next session.

The FBWF maintains a list of files and directories within a protected volume that the application has specifically excluded from FBWF protection. This list is called the "file exclusion list." The files and directories in this list are "write-through," meaning no filtering or caching takes place.

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows XP Embedded.
Header: fbwfapi.h.
Link Library: fbwflib.lib.
