How to omit folder name which may be in multiple places

[RobWright]

Hello,
I am new to using 'Everything' and so far I am finding it just great!
We are using it to make sure we comply with GDPR and we have a folder called PERM in multiple locations that we want the tool to exclude during it's searching as documents inside here we wish to keep.
How can I omit this folder name please as everything I have tried thus far does not work.
Thank you

Rob

What have you tried?

[void]

To exclude all folders called PERM:

• In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
• Click the Exclude tab on the left.
• Click Add Filter....
• Type in the following filter and click OK:
  PERM
• Click OK.

Tried various Regex expressions with and without the ! for the NOT option.
