In EFT Server version 5.1.1 and later, you can create/edit a registry key to set the "dwFilter" parameter that is passed into the function "ReadDirectoryChangesW()", which is the core of the Folder Monitor feature.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\GlobalSCAPE Inc.\EFT Server 4.0\EventRules
"FolderMonitorFilterValue"=dword:0000007D
The default value is:
FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_FILE_NAME | FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_ATTRIBUTES | FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_SIZE | FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_CREATION | FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_LAST_WRITE | FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_LAST_ACCESS
(This is a value of 0x7D)
This override is used to "quiet" folder monitor event dispatching; for example, if only looking for NEW files added to the folder, then exclude the "FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_FILE_NAME | FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_ATTRIBUTES | FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_LAST_ACCESS" set.
