Games preview always gets stuck on 47888/47889
Ludusavi version
v0.25.0
Operating system
Windows
Installation method
Standalone
Description
Whenever I starts Ludosavi and run the preview games, the bar always goes quickly to 47888/47889 and then just remains there permenantly. Never completes and so I am never able to backup anything. Is it something wrong that I am doing?

Hi! There's probably one particular game that has a bad save location in the manifest, causing Ludusavi to scan too much.
Could you please open Command Prompt and try running this? (replace C:\path\to\ludusavi.exe with the actual path on your system)
set RUST_LOG=ludusavi=trace
C:\path\to\ludusavi.exe backup --preview
Once it gets stuck, please upload a copy of %APPDATA%\ludusavi\ludusavi_rCURRENT.log here. The log should show which game it's stuck on.
Yeah, that looks like the issue, since the files for that game can be pretty huge. It's come up a few other times (https://github.com/mtkennerly/ludusavi/issues/243, https://github.com/mtkennerly/ludusavi/issues/375).
On the "other" screen, in the backup exclusions list, you can add a file entry for ~/AppData/Local/Packages/Microsoft/FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe to exclude those files from the scan entirely.
Long-term, Ludusavi should probably be able to report individual files for a game instead of waiting for the whole game to finish scanning, or at least be able to skip a game if it hits certain size/time limits.
I would like to add to this that minecraft bedrock edition also does this it look likes it tries and scans everything like textures, behavior packs etc.,
