Does SEP recognize the windows system variables (i.e. %username%, %userprofile%) when creating a file exclusions.
So for example a file exclusion of %userprofile%\documents\program.exe
It does not. These are not supported, sadly.
Which variables and wildcards does Endpoint Protection allow in Centralized Exception Policies?
Not supported
Still under Ideas section

Sadly, no. It is in Ideas in a couple other areas as well...

Wow....sounds like this could be a product enhancement request then?
Yes
Actually, I believe at the last user group meeting they stated wildcards will be coming - possibly in RU6.
