Could we have an option to avoid the recycle bins during the searches by Alt-F7 through full drives?
For example the presence of a checkbox placed at the current empty room at the right side under the field "search In" (this check box would consider that the directories to skip are directories which always contain the string "recycle" somewhere in their pathnames, I have for example $Recycle.bin on my local disks but I have #Recycle on my Synology NAS).
The best would be of course the ability to load (simple by a button "Load a list of paths to skip") a text file containing at each line a pathname to skip, so that the user can parameter himself different configurations at his ease, simply by choosing this or that text file, each one containing a different list of paths to skip regarding the current work he does. This solution would allow at the same occasion to skip not only the recycle bins but also any other parts of the disk(s), for example to skip some extremely long directories (mirrors of full websites for example) where we perfectly know that the thing we search for is absolutely not in them.

Oh ! Thanks a lot MVV !
I didn't know the existence of that "Ignore list". After having read your answer I have searched on the word "Ignore" in the help chm. And I have found this feature thanks to your reply!
So in that case, I would highly suggest Christian to add in the "Search" panel a new little button simply to access this "ignore list". Because it is certain that many users don't know the existence of that "Ignore List". I use TC since 2005 and I didn't yet know it in 2016.
BlackWinny,
Also, in the Find Files dialog, during search:
The status line (footer) shows the directory currently being searched, and the file details after the search has finished. With a click on a part of the directory it is possible to skip that directory (after confirmation).

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

Thanks a lot, Roman!
And this way to proceed includes automatically the concerned folder into the "Ignore list" ? Or is it only for the current TC session ? Do you know ?
