    When I go to the exclude screen I see .htaccess, /wp-content/, /wp-admin/, etc. But I cannot click into wp-content to find a specific folder to exclude.

    I’m running Windows 7, xampp, php 5.6.8, and no plugins other then BackupWordpress.

    Unnecessary info:
    I use nodejs to build plugins/themes and I need to exclude the /node_modules/ folder in order for the import process to work as well.

    See, the /node_modules/ folder is structured pretty terribly, and Windows cannot handle extremely long filenames.

    I know I could just manually delete the node_modules folder. But I’d have to do that, run a backup, then run $npm install again everytime I want to backup a site. Doing that during development is a major hassle.

    Could it have something to do with node_modules folder structure?
