[NOT FOUND] or [EXCEPT IN]

[enzerch]

I want to do a seach:

[*.mobi]

In all folders except in folder [\tm]

In some languages, the operator is NOT FOUND

In other languages, the operator is EXCEPT IN

Thank you

[therube]

One way,

ext:mobi !\tm

.

[enzerch]

Thank you for the quick reply

I miss something, however

None of these worked -- incorrectly returning zero files

*.mobi ext:*.mobi \tm

*.mobi ext:[*.mobi \tm]

*.mobi [ext:*.mobi \tm]

I want ALL the *.mobi files on the PC which ARE NOT in \tm

Thank you

Did you try @therube's suggestion?

Code: Select all

ext:mobi !\tm

Some explanation:
- ext:mobi will search for all fils that have extension mobi
- ! is Everything's syntax for NOT, so !\tm means not in folders where the name starts with tm

If the foldername you want to exclude is exactly "tm", you can search for:

Code: Select all

ext:mobi !\tm\
