Search box add file path "ends with"

Post by FKCapitalism2 »

Kind of need option "ends with" without it its incomplete. Right now i am trying to delete all folders that end with "_" symbol, but can't.

In "quick filter" field, at the top of the browser, regular expressions can be used, you can try
_$
Elsewhere in "Search" dialog, use only these options :
- Include folders
- Use regular expressions

and in Filename field
_$
$ in reg exp means : end
^ in reg exp means : begin
etc ...

Other example :
Beginning by IMG, some characters , ending by underscore :
^IMG.*_$
^IMG = beginning with IMG,
. = containing any characters
* = n times
_ = Underscore
$ = at the end

Or, with traditional dos/windows syntax in search dialog
uncheck "regular expressions"
keep include folders
filename : *_
