I have 4 drives in my PC, and one of them is strictly used for file backup (managed by Windows).. so when im searching for files, more often than not I get a bunch of results that are essentially duplicated bc of the backup. 95% of the time, I don't care about the results on the backup drive. I would like an easy way of excluding the drive (without removing it from database in options > Indexes > NTFS, and without using the options > Indexes > Exclude feature).
I read a few threads about making a filter (i.e. creating a filter for just C: drive) .. but that wont work for me bc i have 2 other drives. So, if possible, I'd like to have my default searches include C: D: and E: but also have a fast way of including my backup drive F: if the need to search it arises.
Hope all this make sense.. Any advice or feedback is appreciated
thanks so much @void !! I figured there was a way to pass a "not" logical operator but wasnt sure.. totally forgot about the ! thats often used in coding languages :facepalm: .. thanks for clearing that up, and for the detailed directions on how to get it all configured.
Also, I'm a longtime user of this software and it's by far the best i've ever used (and ive tried several others that claim to be fast.. nothing has come close to the performance of Everything). So, just wanna say thank you for the tool, and thank you again for the support! Cheers
