How find all foldres / subfolders NOT containing given file ( eg folder.jp?g)

[piverto]

Hi to all

I need to find all foldres / subfolders NOT containing given file ( eg folder.jp?g)

How can I achieve this ? I am totally new to XYplorer and scripting !

TIA to experts here !

Append a /x switch to your search pattern, e.g. *.jp*g /x

The XY gurus will tell you how to do that with native XY.
With the Everything script from Highend its a simple query
to get all folders without a folder.jpg into a Paper folder.
your_start_path folder: !child:folder.jpg

And how to find all folders
- containing either .doc OR .txt files
- but NOT containing .wav files

Is this possible ?

TIA to all experts here !

This Everything version 1.5 search should work
folder: child:<*.doc;*.txt> !child:*.wav

For quicksearch:

Code: Select all

prop:#contains.*.txt:1 and !prop:#contains.*.wav:1 or prop:#contains.*.doc:1 and !prop:#contains.*.wav:1

So long. . .
