What file types are excluded from Cloud Drive sync?

Some file types are automatically excluded when your Cloud Drive performs a sync.

If you want to exclude even more file types, you can add these in the Settings menu in your Windows Cloud Drive application, or in the Preferences for the Mac version of the Cloud Drive application.

You can access these settings by:

1. Right click on the Cloud Drive icon located in the Windows System Tray (or the Menu bar on Mac)
2. Click on Settings (or the Preferences on Mac)
3. Click on Filter Extensions.
