do not search in specific folders
How can I make the search to search all subfolders of a disk for files but not in folders that have a specific name?

Re: do not search in specific folders
If you want a directory \DELTACAD\, but not directories named \sonny\ that are within:
or
or if you never wanted to turn up - at all, you could exclude that in; .
The ! is a NOT operator, so NOT within \sonny or NOT within \DELTACAD\sonny.
(Depending on your particular needs, \sonny may be fine, or for more refinement, "exactness", \DELTACAD\sonny.)
\DELTACAD !\sonnyor
\DELTACAD !\DELTACAD\sonnyor if you never wanted
\DELTACAD\sonnyTools | Options | Indexes -> ExcludeThe ! is a NOT operator, so NOT within \sonny or NOT within \DELTACAD\sonny.
