Searching a subset of all indexed drives

Post by leowankerddd »

Hi,

I have 4 indexed drives. C: G: H: I:
I want to search only 2 of them, but at the same time.
If I put in "g:\ h:\" I get no results. I want to eliminate c: and include both G: and H: but not i:
I thought that "g:\ h:\" would find everything in g: AND h:? Doesn't seem to work.
I also tried G: OR H: and that did not work.

How do I search only g: and h: and eliminate c: and i: ?

Thank you.

Leo.

Please try the following search:

g:|h:

| = OR

If you use this search often, consider adding a filter:
  • In Everything, from the Search menu, click Add to filters...
  • Change Name to: G: or H:
  • Change Search to: g:|h:
  • Click OK.
Filters can be activated from the Search menu, Filter bar (View -> Filters), right clicking the status bar, filter macro or filter keyboard shortcut.
