The local MagentaCloud of T-Online is a file \.cache\file.lock. It is locked by the Cloud software.
I tried to exclude:
\.cache\
file.lock
Nothing works. How I exclude the file.

Be aware that In- and Exclusions are relative to the left and right base location.

There are many ways to achive what you want, but the simplest way may be (in the GUI):
* Run a Compare
* identify the file or folder to be excluded
* right-click on the file and select to Exclude that file

For your learning:
you may then open the filter setting and read by what file-specification FFS decided to exclude the file.

I excluded manual. Right-click I never used. ;-)
*\file.lock works

I was irritated by the sample \subfolder\ in the samples. It is only valid for root subfolders.
