When I add folder / many files to FileBot how could I avoid that special files are added, with a special extension, e.g. *.url or containg "sample" in the file name?

Thank you very much!
Alright, thanks for the tutorial, also. So, to automatically let FileBot let block the unwished files when drag and drop them to the is panel is not possible, I guess.

Thank you very much for the code and link.
I have done it that way, but I cannot get it to work:
The nfo file is added, though.
And how can I add further extensions? E.g. info and db?
Many thanks again.

The result of this expression is either TRUE or FALSE. Do you want name your files TRUE or FALSE? Because that's what the format expression is for...
The
Includes filter allows you to filter the files you want to include. You will find the code box for the
Includes filter right below the
Input Folder text box. You can test your
Includes filter by clicking the Search/Folder icon button next to it.
