Filter Category to Search Specific Drives?

Post by loginnow18 »

For example, I want a search filter that only searches the X and Y drive that I have on my network. However, when I create a new filter I cannot figure out how to do this. I tried the Edit Filter, named it, checked Match Path, then in the Search I listed:
X:, Y:
X: Y:
X: AND Y:
X: & Y:

I tried all three of those separately and nothing worked. I tried to look through the documentation but didn't find out how to do this. Listing a single drive path in that Search box works fine though.

Please try the following search:

X: | Y:

| = OR



I recommend leaving Match Path unchecked.

That worked! Now I feel silly, I got the syntax wrong, I didn’t think to ever use the Or operator. Thank ya!
