I have a folder named "1" containing subfolders.
There are other folders outside of folder "1" whose name begins with "1" e.g. "1A", "1 XYZ", etc.
I want the default to search only in folder "1" and subfolders, nothing else.
I thought this would be as simple as specifying "c:\1\" as an Include folder, but the results include the other folders beginning with "1".
Again, I want the default search only in folder "1" and subfolders.
Any help appreciated!

Re: Need help with Include / Exclude
What version of Everything?
With Everything 1.2 you must specify include c:\1\ as the first exclude.
With Everything 1.3 you must specify c:\1 for include only for the C: drive in the NTFS tab.

Re: Need help with Include / Exclude
I'm using v1.2, and I have specified c:\1\ as the first (and only) exclude, but folders named c:\1xxxx outside of folder "1" still appear in the results.
Here's a screenshot of the options; see any issues?

Re: Need help with Include / Exclude
Excluding in 1.2 is broken, you might be able to get it to work by adding the following filter include to files and folders:
Please note this adds the 1 folder from each volume..
-or-
Please try the 1.2.1alpha or 1.3.1beta
Code: Select all
?:\1\*

Please try the 1.2.1alpha or 1.3.1beta
Re: Need help with Include / Exclude
Ok, thanks anyway for the suggestions.Excluding in 1.2 is broken...
Specifically, the 2nd backslash in "c:\1\" should constrain the search to c:\1 only, correct?
This also appears to work:
- Include c:\1\ applied to folders, subfolders and files
- Exclude c:\1*\ applied to files and folders
