Hi,

I'm trying to exclude som file types from beiing added in the file manager with out any success.

I have tried to add the "llegalCharactersRegex" attribute with an extension of the default regex to the

But this did no have any effect. But is this the right element to put the illegalCharactersRegex attribute?

The illegalCharactersRegex attribute should be placed on the <virtualpath> element, not the <add> subelement.

I.e. should look like this:

<virtualPath illegalCharactersREgex="yourRegexHere" customFileSummary="~/FileSummary.config">
   <providers>
      <add showInFileManager="true" virtualName="Global Files" virtualPath="~/Global/" etc etc />
   </providers>
</virtualPath>
