Filter EXE Files

Postby Lord Dragonfire » Sun Apr 21, 2019 6:43 pm

I am trying to filter "RARBG_DO_NOT_MIRROR.exe"

so far, i am not sure what i am doing wrong.

Here is the filter i set under global:
Reject If - Filename Contains - rarbg*.exe

The filename filter applies after download starts. If that's what you want, I'd change if to:

"rarbg.*[.]exe"

Which means "<rarbg><followed by anthing><with a dot><ending in EXE>'

If you're trying to hide these posts. use "Subject Reject" instead of filename. You can use both subject and filename by adding both to the filter.
