Thanks to both of you for your quick reply! So, I started with removing most of the paths/folder names in Alfred's Search Scope list (I never dared to do that before) and that already helped. Somehow, I had assumed the check box "Include folders Home (Excluding ~/Library)" would be the perfect solution, but I guess there were just some other "exotic" paths/folders on that list that I don't need Alfred to look into. (Maybe some of these paths came "pre-loaded" with Alfred!? At least, I couldn't recognize them immediately as part of my own folder structure...) Anyway, I got rid of all the to-do-items occupying the entire result list after a "find" command and now get mostly documents! Thanks again! -Jörg

Hi, my problem is that when I use Alfred's "find" to search on my computer, the first many (many) results are to-do-items from Things containing the <query text>. However, I am typically looking for documents, not to-do-items... So, how I can I exclude a certain file type (here, to-do-items from Things)?? I think I understand how to *include* certain types, but not how to *exclude* them. Thanks! -Jörg
