Will File History back up its own store?
If I add %USERPROFILE%\AppData (as opposed to %APPDATA%) to a library and use File History to back it up, will File History back up its own store (%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\FileHistory)? I am aware of the ability to exclude specific folders, but I would still like to know the answer to this question.

From what I can find, it appears that File History can not backup itself. For additional information please refer to the following links:
