I want to search for let's say *.doc from all my files in Google Drive but I want to exclude results from a certain folder let's say old docs. What do I type in?

Not exactly convenient, but it works.

  1. Create a folder X
  2. Move all other file/folders into X, minus excluded files/folders
  3. Go into the X folder
  4. Do your search
  5. optionally move every back to original location.
