If you go to Tools > Settings > Search, there are a bunch of options for disabling certain error messages.

*2ct*.vtf
in the Include Files box and
C:\
in the Path box
but I am getting all kind of files but not the file I am looking for
I tried to select both
Include Files Filter is Pattern
and
Include Files Filter is text Query
with similar results
I also tried to set the advance tab for both cases with the settings as in the attached images and once again same results.

please see attached images.

What am I doing wrong? ]]>
