Visual Studio - Find in Files except in files with type of

86 Views Asked by At

Visual Studio's Find in Files has the option "Look at these file types:" which allows you to specify specific file types (eg. all .aspx files).

It is possible to specify file types NOT to look at?

I need something like "search in all files and do not search in *.resx files".

Sorry for my bad English.

Visual Studio 2019 added this feature in "Find in Files". Plenty out there on this. Otherwise can look at the web blob "Modernizing Find in Files" at: Modernizing Find in Files
