File backup skipping files

Get the error that something is in use by another process.  Most of the time it's an Office tilde file.  Is there a way to ignore files that have a tilde in the filename? Related: Path not found ...

    {~*, *~, ~*.*}
     
    You can use above in exclude list.
    ~*                : Will exclude all files which name starts with ~.
    *~                : Exclude all files which has ~ at its end.
    ~*.*              : Exclude files starts with ~ and of any file extension.
     
    { }                : Apair of curly brackets (or braces) indicates multiple file name patterns, which       can be use at a time.
     
    I hope this would help you.
