I need to find all files/folders contained password word except folders with name *\PasswordDialog_<some digits and letters>.
These folders are present in different places of directories.
I tried:
*password*.*|*PasswordDialog_*
*password*.*|*\PasswordDialog_*
*password*.*|*\PasswordDialog_*\
*password*.*|*PasswordDialog_*\
but it still finds these folders.
Is my query wrong typed?
Search query to exclude foldername from the list

*password*.*|PasswordDialog_*\
didn't help. PasswordDialog_*\ is the last folder in many branches of dir tree.
Well, what helped was not using wildcard in folder name.
*password*.*|PasswordDialog_UserLevel_5_13_40
doesn't show this folders anymore but there are other PasswordDialog_* so it is not solution to give a name without wildcard.
Maybe the * wildcard is wrong here after AND NOT, but it is working for *.excludeext.

Well, then you might tryas long as no files with such names exist that you intend to find (or limit the search to directories, so that wouldn't be an issue).
