Removing a file extension from a backup category
Each backup file category contains a list of file
extensions. However, you can remove a default file
extension or a file extension that you added to a backup
file category. Norton 360 identifies the files with the
file extension that you removed and does not back them
up the next time that you run backup. For example,
you do not want to back up the documents with a .rtf
file extension in the Office Documents category. In
this case, you can remove the .rtf file extension from
that category.

Resetting a backup category to default file
extensions
