Under Find Files tab:
Can RegEx support path: and itemcount?
The performance of RegEx appears more consistent and reliable than Boolean or Standard modes.

For example, the following pattern never works.
(*.epub|*.mobi) & !(path:css|html)

1) No.
2) Hmm, I don't believe that. Your pattern is simply wrong. Those Boolean operators have to be surrounded by spaces:

Code: Select all

(*.epub | *.mobi) & !(path:css | html)

Thanks for adding clarity, particularly the tip of surrounding the logical operators with spaces.
