I typically use an exclude path like "bin|obj" to eliminate searching folders that would match the entire name. However recently my searches began excluding files that contained the sequence "bin" and "obj" even if only as a portion of the files name. Is there a setting to prevent this wildcard approach to matching or is a newly introduced issue?
Ok, I've gone all the way back to 3.2, and the Exclude Paths box is always treated as a wildcard. We'll add an option for the next version to allow you to choose whether you want it to be always treated as a wildcard or not. In the meantime, if you just do something like this:
\bin\|\obj\
It should then only match the exact directories, because of the leading and trailing backslashes.
Hope that helps!
