fileexists: with wildcards

Here we find

regex:^D:\\media\\(.*)$ fileexists:E:\\Backup\\media\\\1 (find files on the D: drive, where a backup with the same sub path and filename exist on the E: drive)

But how can I find backups in unknown sub folders? This doesn't seem to work:

Re: Lost in booleans

Thanks for your attention, Void.

Regex is turned off. I also played with escaping spaces without any luck at all.

Yesterday I wrote a python wrapper that splits the search phrase and then searches for every given word separately. Well, it does the job but supporting operators and modifiers makes ...

For XMP side car files it seems simple: Add "*.xmp" to the "Include only files" option in "Content" section of the ...
