Windows 10 UWF filter exclusion on working on user Documents

$

I'm running Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC (version 10.0.17763). I've setup everything I need and I'm configuring UWF filters. I enabled protection for C: volume, and added a couple of exclusion for:

  • allowing write on my app folder in C:\Program Files\CustomApp (for updates)
  • allowing write on the user's "User" Documents folder C:\Users\User\Documents\ (custom app logs, ...)
  • allowing network interfaces edit

Write on app folder (e.g. create a folder/file) and edit on network interfaces (e.g. change IP address) will persist after reboot. Write on User's Documents folder gets lost after reboot.

Am I missing something? How to have persistency on user Documents folder? Do I need to set some extra things other than the folder exclusion?

Here is the output of uwfmgr get-config command. Folder C:\Users\User\Documents\ is listed in the File Exclusion, in the same way the (working) C:\Program Files\CustomApp folder is listed.
