Hi azert, and welcome to the forums.

I never use "excepting for", so that's the main difference to me. I only use "except for" and I don't ever hear people use the expression "excepting for".

If I did hear someone use "excepting for", I guess I would understand it to mean the same thing as "except for".

Did you find "excepting for" in a sentence?

Actually, an even more interesting question is "what is the difference between except and except for"

I remember asking this question ( on this thread: http://www.english-test.net/forum/ftopic19642.html#63981 )
