I can't find enough detail on the EXCLUDE switch to say but I have the follow guesses:

1. _Perhaps_ EXCLUDE want "filenames" and not "pathnames". The command's help text uses the term "filenames". You might try omitting the "K:\" in the EXCLUDE section.

2. The last "*" means files without any extension! Is that what you mean or should it be "...\*.*" for "all files regardless of extension"?

good luck
