Hint: Dragging and dropping files and folders onto the desired include/exclude fields is the fastest way to specify exceptions. Dragging and dropping the files/folders on these fields will cause PeerLock to dynamically enter only the file extensions or folder names in the specified field. Dragging and dropping the files/folder on top of the button to the right of these fields will cause PeerLock to enter the full name of the files or the full path of the folders.
