Another Exclusion Filter Query - ntuser.dat

[Snakes]

When I run my "Synchronize" process, I always get the error messages:-

10:45:12 Error: Cannot read file "C:\Users\Clive 2\ntuser.dat".
The file is locked by another process:
System
Registry
10:45:12 Error: Cannot read file "C:\Users\Clive 2\ntuser.dat.log1".
The file is locked by another process:
System
10:45:12 Error: Cannot read file "C:\Users\Clive 2\ntuser.dat.log2".
The file is locked by another process:

10:45:44 Error: Cannot read file "C:\Users\Clive 2\ntuser.dat".
The file is locked by another process:

This is despite me having the filter set as follows:-

*\desktop.ini
*\thumbs.db
*\bootmgr
*\pagefile.sys
*\Boot\
*\Clive2\NTUSER.DAT.*
*\Recycling\
C:\Users\Clive 2\AppData
C:\Users\Clive2\OneDrive
C:\Users\Clive 2\ntuser.dat
C:\Users\Clive 2\ntuser.dat.log1
C:\Users\Clive 2\ntuser.dat.log2

Could someone please what I have done wrong and, as clearly as possible, what I need to change to prevent these error messages?

Many thanks, in advance.

Use, for Example:

*\REM_GLOBALE_DATEIEN:
*\hiberfil.sys
*\pagefile.sys
*\swapfile.sys

*\REM_USERPROFILE_BZW_GLOBALE_AUSNAHMEN:
*\ntuser.dat*
*\UsrClass.dat*
*\UsrClass.dat*
*\AppData\*\*cache*

Paths in ffs are relative not absolut.
When your folderpair is: "C:\Users\Clive 2"
then you have to filter only *\ntuser.dat without "C:\Users\Clive 2"

In the Filter-Example above
*\ntuser.dat* filters this file in all Userprofiles ...

Thanks for getting back to me. I'm not sure I fully understood all of your feedback but I did realise that I hadn't fully copied my exclusion list properly in my previous post. It did include *\ntuser.dat. (including the full stop/point). But when I replaced that with your suggested *\ntuser.dat* it worked perfectly.

Thanks so much.
