Maybe I missed something in another topic, but:

  1. did filter groups replace the OS level filters?
  2. is there somewhere that explains how to use filter groups?

Thanks.

Yes, filter groups are the new thing, and work cross-os.
Not sure if it was discussed here on the forum, but it was mentioned on Github:

Yes, the manual is updated:

Perfect!

Thanks for the clarification, and sorry for not seeing the Exclude filter group section in the filters select list.

I’m assuming this is the cause of the “The supplied option --default-filters is not supported and will be ignored” warnings I’ve seen some people reporting.

Am I correct in assuming this means that if you have --default-filters enabled on pre-2.0.3.5 (so it’s excluding default OS level files) then upgrade to 2.0.3.5+ and do NOT shift to using the Exclude filter group your backups will start INCLUDING those default OS level files (possibly making them run longer, take more destination space, and maybe more likely to run into open-file issues)?

Yes, I think so. We should perhaps have just deprecated the option and made it use the other exclude stuff, but since they have different exclude lists, maybe we are better of alerting users that things have changed.

That sounds like a good way to handle it.

So I also got this warning on MacOS after upgrade from 2.0.3.3beta to 2.0.4.23beta. “The supplied option —default-filters is not supported and will be ignored”. My default-filter is OSX under Advanced Options. And my Exclude Filter list has checked Hidden Files, System Files and Temporary Files. I assume something changed with the upgrade and one of the settings is no longer supported. Which one?

Default filters warning in 2.0.4.5_beta says a hard refresh solved it (but filters do reduce performance).

If it doesn’t solve it, that thread might be a good place to seek further advice on what to do to resolve it.

Warning --default-filters is not supported #3532 also reported hard refresh (its method varies) solved it.

v2.0.4.6-2.0.4.6_canary_2018-12-11

Added cache-buster for all local static files, thanks @LacunaSoftware

but unfortunately v2.0.4.23-2.0.4.23_beta_2019-07-14 is 2.0.4.5 plus an urgent warning, so lacks the fix.
