How to exclude some folders from find in files
-
Hi
In my project folders there are some indexing folders that contains a lot of files of the same type as I’m searching in, so I was wondering if it is possible to exclude these index folders, they are all named the same.
Is that possible ?
Thanks in advance

Use Filters, as described here in the manual
For example, as said in the manual,
!+\log*will recursively not search any files in folders that start withlog(so directories like.\log,.\logs,.\other\logfiles,.\many\layers\deep\logwill all be excluded from the search)
