Disclaimer: please bear in mind that I am an absolute begnner myself, and that 
I am no windows sysadmin. 

Here's the file set for one of our windows servers:

Fileset {
  Name = "My semi-fictional windows server"
  Enable VSS = yes
  Include {
     File = E:/Data
  }
  Exclude {
    File = E:/Data/Users/Transfer
  }
}

As soon as you know which files and subdirectories te exclude, just put the 
names in the Exclude clause, as shown above. In the example above, the 
'E:/Data/Users/Transfer' subdirectory is excluded from the backup.

IIRC, this problem is apparently solved by enabling the VSS service on the 
windows client and setting the 'Enable VSS' option in your fileset directive to 
'Yes'.  Note to the veterans: please feel free to correct me if I am wrong 
here. I am still learning here.

Greetings & good luck,
Joachim
