I need to add a synchronization filter (F7) to exclude file names and directories
containing the string "- Copy"
For example the directories "EC Tools - Copy" or "Examples - Copy" or "E-Mail_files - Copy"
or the file "Img_1853 - Copy.jpg" or "Poo - Copy.xlsx" or "Duc setup - Copy.exe"
Any help would be appreciated

In line with the FFS Manual section on Filtering, you could add
*- Copy*
to your Exclude Filter.
This will exclude all files and folders (and their content!) that have "- Copy" in their name.
