This setting will not create the "excluded Get Black/White List from external Path (**URL/UNC/Local/GPO**) - download/copy to Winget-AutoUpdate installation location if external list is newer.
**PATH** must end with a Directory, not a File...
...if the external Path is an **URL** and the web host doesn't respond with a date/time header for the file (i.e **GitHub**) then the file is always downloaded!
