# Conflicts

1. 2 Files in one directory
2. Parent and Chile Directory have conflicting rules

_Question_

- Which takes precedence ?
- How to find all conflicting rules ?

# Windows and Linux Rules

Windows uses \ and Linux used /, which makes Kopia interpret rules differently for the same data-repo combination.

Is there a way to use / in windows ?

# Bad Rules

How to see all rules which are bad (not interpreted by Kopia)
